CVE-2025-24807 is a medium-severity Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity (CWE-345) vulnerability in Eprosima Fast Dds. Its CVSS base score is 4.5 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Mark-of-the-Web Bypass (T1553.005); 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 SC-23 (Session Authenticity) and SI-7 (Software, Firmware, and Information Integrity) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

CVE-2025-24807 affects eProsima Fast DDS, a C++ implementation of the OMG Data Distribution Service (DDS) standard. In versions prior to 2.6.10, 2.10.7, 2.14.5, 3.0.2, 3.1.2, and 3.2.0, the access control plugin fails to perform full certificate chain validation or check expiration dates for PermissionsCA certificates. Instead, it only validates the S/MIME signature, allowing expired PermissionsCA certificates to be treated as valid. This issue, tied to CWE-345 (Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity), carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.1 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H).
A local attacker with low privileges can exploit this vulnerability by supplying an expired PermissionsCA, enabling unauthorized governance or permissions access. Under specific conditions—such as a non-self-signed PermissionsCA with a full chain—the system may also crash. While the description notes low overall impact, successful exploitation compromises integrity and availability without affecting confidentiality.
The eProsima Fast DDS security advisory (GHSA-w33g-jmm2-8983) and associated pull request (#5530) detail the fix implemented in versions 2.6.10, 2.10.7, 2.14.5, 3.0.2, 3.1.2, and 3.2.0, which add proper chain and expiration validation in components like Permissions.cpp and PKIDH.cpp. Security practitioners should prioritize upgrading affected deployments to these patched releases.

Vulnerability Data
eprosima Fast DDS is a C++ implementation of the DDS (Data Distribution Service) standard of the OMG (Object Management Group). Prior to versions 2.6.10, 2.10.7, 2.14.5, 3.0.2, 3.1.2, and 3.2.0, per design, PermissionsCA is not full chain validated, nor is…

the expiration date validated. Access control plugin validates only the S/MIME signature which causes an expired PermissionsCA to be taken as valid. Even though this issue is responsible for allowing `governance/permissions` from an expired PermissionsCA and having the system crash when PermissionsCA is not self-signed and contains the full-chain, the impact is low. Versions 2.6.10, 2.10.7, 2.14.5, 3.0.2, 3.1.2, and 3.2.0 contain a fix for the issue.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Explicit requirement to protect session authenticity structurally prevents the weakness for communications.
Integrity verification tools detect (but do not stop) the acceptance of data lacking authenticity.
Cryptographic mechanisms can be used to verify authenticity, thereby preventing acceptance of invalid data.
Associating security attributes with exchanged information supports verification of authenticity.
Integrity protection on transmitted data directly stops acceptance of unauthenticated or altered data.
