CVE-2025-2312
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:NSummary
CVE-2025-2312 is a medium-severity Exposure of Data Element to Wrong Session (CWE-488) vulnerability in Samba (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 5.9 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Web Session Cookie (T1550.004); ranked at the 10th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
AC-3 enforces access decisions that can be scoped to the correct session context.
AC-4 controls information flows between entities, reducing cross-session leakage.
SC-4 directly stops unintended transfer of data through shared resources that different sessions may access.
SC-39 isolates execution domains so one session cannot reach another's state or data.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Enforcing authorization policies and least privilege can prevent cross-session data exposure when session separation is treated as an access rule.
Protecting data-in-use directly addresses runtime leakage of session data to unauthorized contexts.
Logical access controls and segmentation can be applied to isolate session state within applications or environments.

Security testing can detect the weakness but does not itself implement the preventive control.
Secure development lifecycle practices include session-management controls that prevent exposure of data to the wrong session.
Application security requirements explicitly call for proper session isolation and state management.
Secure system architecture principles require isolation of session state to avoid cross-session data leakage.
Secure coding standards mandate correct session handling to prevent exposure of data elements to the wrong session.
Information access restriction directly enforces session boundaries so data is not exposed to the wrong session.
