CVE-2025-49002
Published: 03 June 2025
Summary
CVE-2025-49002 is a high-severity Authentication Bypass by Spoofing (CWE-290) vulnerability in Dataease Dataease. Its CVSS base score is 8.2 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 3.6% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
Deeper analysis
DataEase, an open source business intelligence and data visualization tool, contains a bypass of the prior patch for CVE-2025-32966 in all versions before 2.10.10. The flaw stems from case-insensitive handling of the blocked INIT and RUNSCRIPT keywords, allowing the original restriction to be evaded and resulting in a vulnerability rated at CVSS 8.2 with CWE-290 characteristics.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply specially crafted input that bypasses the keyword filter, achieving high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected DataEase instance. The attack requires no user interaction or privileges and can be performed over the network despite the high attack complexity noted in the scoring vector.
The GitHub Security Advisories GHSA-999m-jv2p-5h34 and GHSA-h7hj-4j78-cvc7 state that the issue is resolved in DataEase 2.10.10 and that no workarounds are available. The associated EPSS score has remained flat at 0.2617 with no material increase after disclosure.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Reveals spoofed logon attempts through unexpected previous logon timestamps upon legitimate login.
Training specifically addresses recognizing spoofed communications and phishing that enable authentication bypass.
Requiring verifiable identity evidence at appropriate assurance levels makes it substantially harder for attackers to successfully spoof or impersonate users to obtain accounts.
Unique device authentication makes successful spoofing of device identity substantially more difficult to achieve.
Unique identification of non-organizational users reduces the feasibility of authentication bypass by spoofing.
Unique identification and authentication of services before communications makes spoofing of service identities substantially harder.
Isolated trusted path ensures the user interacts only with genuine system components, preventing spoofing of authentication interfaces or prompts.
Directly counters DNS response spoofing by requiring cryptographic origin authentication artifacts from the authoritative source.
