Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:LSummary
CVE-2025-25749 is a high-severity Weak Password Requirements (CWE-521) vulnerability in Digitaldruid Hoteldruid. Its CVSS base score is 7.1 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Brute Force (T1110); ranked at the 47th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to IA-5 (Authenticator Management) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-25749 is a weakness in HotelDruid versions 3.0.7 and earlier that stems from missing password strength policy enforcement, allowing users to configure arbitrarily weak credentials. The issue is tracked as CWE-521 and carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 reflecting network attack vector, high attack complexity, and low-privileged access without user interaction.
An authenticated attacker who can reach the application can supply weak passwords during account creation or modification. Successful exploitation may lead to credential compromise that grants the attacker elevated confidentiality and integrity access along with limited availability impact on the affected HotelDruid instance.
The single reference URL provides disclosure details but contains no information on vendor patches, configuration workarounds, or official mitigation guidance. The associated EPSS score remains flat at 0.0133 with no material increase after publication.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
IA-5 directly requires organizations to enforce strength, complexity, and change rules for passwords and other authenticators at issuance and reset.

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.
Explicitly requires enforcing minimum password strength as part of authentication.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Enforcing minimum length, complexity, non-dictionary, and non-reuse rules directly counters weak password policies that allow attackers to guess or brute-force credentials.
