Published Aug 6, 2026CWE-281EPSS 0.32%

Overview

CVE-2025-14779 is a low-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 6, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.8 (LOW).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.8, rated LOW. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

The Secret Type Management REST API does not correctly isolate access controls when deleting a secret type. The on-delete cascade logic, when triggered, fails to enforce organizational boundaries, leading to the removal of secrets associated with that type across all organizations.

Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in the unintended deletion of secrets across the entire deployment, potentially causing configuration failures, service interruptions, and a denial-of-service condition. This vulnerability requires delete permissions for the Secret Type Management REST API, which are by default only granted to administrators.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
