Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In May 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: m_can: m_can_class_allocate_dev(): initialize spin lock on device probe
The spin lock tx_handling_spinlock in struct m_can_classdev is not
being initialized. This leads the following spinlock bad magic
complaint from the kernel, eg. when trying to send CAN frames with
cansend from can-utils:
| BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, cansend/95

Initializing the spin lock in m_can_class_allocate_dev solves that
problem.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: displayport: Fix NULL pointer access
This patch ensures that the UCSI driver waits for all pending tasks in the
ucsi_displayport_work workqueue to finish executing before proceeding with
the partner removal.
FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.178, the application performs insufficient validation of user-supplied data, which is used as arguments to string formatting functions. As a result, an attacker can pass a string containing special symbols (\r, \n, \t)to the application. This issue has been patched in version 1.8.178.
The Easy Digital Downloads – eCommerce Payments and Subscriptions made easy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's edd_receipt shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.8.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Strapi is an open-source content management system. Prior to version 4.25.2, inputting a local domain into the Webhooks URL field leads to the application fetching itself, resulting in a server side request forgery (SSRF). This issue has been patched in version 4.25.2.
Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. In versions starting from 7.0.0 to before 8.0.2, a stack-based buffer overflow exists in redis-check-aof due to the use of memcpy with strlen(filepath) when copying a user-supplied file path into a fixed-size stack buffer. This allows an attacker to overflow the stack and potentially achieve code execution. This issue has been patched in version 8.0.2.
CVE-2025-27702 is a vulnerability in the management console of Absolute
Secure Access prior to version 13.54. Attackers with administrative
access to the console and who have been assigned a certain set of
permissions can bypass those permissions to improperly modify settings.
The attack complexity is low, there are no preexisting attack
requirements; the privileges required are high, and there is no user
interaction required. There is no impact to system confidentiality or
availability, impact to system integrity is high.
CVE-2025-27703 is a privilege escalation vulnerability in the management
console of Absolute Secure Access prior to version 13.54. Attackers
with administrative access to a specific subset of privileged features
in the console can elevate their permissions to access additional
features in the console. The attack complexity is low, there are no
preexisting attack requirements; the privileges required are high, and
there is no user interaction required. The impact to system
confidentiality is low, the impact to system integrity is high and the
impact to system availability is low.
CVE-2025-27706 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the management
console of Absolute Secure Access prior to version 13.54. Attackers
with system administrator permissions can interfere with another system
administrator’s use of the management console when the second
administrator visits the page. Attack complexity is low, there are no
preexisting attack requirements, privileges required are high and active
user interaction is required. There is no impact on confidentiality,
the impact on integrity is low and there is no impact on availability.
Netwrix Directory Manager v.11.0.0.0 and before & after v.11.1.25134.03 contains a hardcoded password.
