CVE-2025-25231
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 · uneditedOmnissa Workspace ONE UEM contains a Secondary Context Path Traversal Vulnerability. A malicious actor may be able to gain access to sensitive information by sending crafted GET requests (read-only) to restricted API endpoints.
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 · moderate confidenceA secondary context path traversal vulnerability in Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM allows unauthenticated attackers to craft GET requests with directory traversal sequences to access restricted API endpoints and read sensitive information from the system.

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 Workspace ONE UEM versionAccess the UEM admin console or check system information pages for the installed Workspace ONE UEM version numberAffected if The installed version falls within the vulnerable version range for CVE-2025-25231 and has not been patched
-
Verify console network exposureDetermine if the Workspace ONE UEM console is accessible from untrusted networks by reviewing firewall rules, load balancer configurations, or VPN access policiesAffected if The console is exposed to the internet or untrusted networks without IP restrictions
-
Inspect API access logs for path traversalReview UEM server logs for GET requests containing patterns like '../', '..\', or encoded traversal sequences targeting API endpointsAffected if Such traversal patterns appear in logs indicating exploitation attempts or successful access
-
Check for restricted API endpoint accessExamine server access logs and audit trails for unauthorized access to restricted API paths that should require authenticationAffected if Evidence exists of unauthenticated access to protected API endpoints via traversal patterns
-
Review WAF or network protection logsCheck any Web Application Firewall, intrusion detection system, or proxy logs for blocked path traversal requests targeting the UEM consoleAffected if Path traversal attacks are being logged as blocked, indicating active targeting
A user is affected if their unpatched Workspace ONE UEM version is accessible from untrusted networks and evidence exists of path traversal attempts or unauthorized API access.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataApply the vendor-provided security patch for CVE-2025-25231. Additionally, restrict network access to the Workspace ONE UEM console to trusted IPs and implement WAF rules to detect and block path traversal patterns in API requests.
