CVE-2025-10433
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was determined in 1Panel-dev MaxKB up to 2.0.2/2.1.0. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /admin/api/workspace/default/tool/debug. Executing manipulation of the argument code can lead to deserialization. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. Upgrading to version 2.1.1 is capable of addressing this issue. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceA deserialization vulnerability exists in MaxKB versions up to 2.1.0. The /admin/api/workspace/default/tool/debug API endpoint does not properly sanitize the 'code' parameter, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious serialized objects leading to remote code execution.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if MaxKB is deployedCheck for running MaxKB processes, Docker containers, or installed directories (e.g., looking for maxkb, maxkb-ai in process lists or container names)Affected if MaxKB software is present in the environment
-
Determine installed MaxKB versionCheck the version file, Docker image tag, or query the API version endpoint (if available). Common locations: /opt/maxkb/version, package.json version field, or Docker image tagsAffected if Version is 2.1.0 or earlier (any version up to and including 2.1.0)
-
Verify the vulnerable endpoint existsCheck if the API endpoint /admin/api/workspace/default/tool/debug is present in the deployed codebase or exposed via API documentationAffected if The /admin/api/workspace/default/tool/debug endpoint is accessible in the application
-
Check if admin API access is enabledInspect application configuration or routing to determine if /admin/api/* endpoints are exposed (no authentication required or using default credentials)Affected if The vulnerable debug endpoint can be reached without additional access controls beyond basic authentication
The environment is affected if MaxKB version is 2.1.0 or earlier AND the /admin/api/workspace/default/tool/debug endpoint is accessible to the attacker.
