CVE-2025-27650
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 · uneditedVasion Print (formerly PrinterLogic) before Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.862 Application 20.0.2014 allows Private Keys in Docker Overlay V-2023-013.
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 confidenceVasion Print virtual appliance before version 22.0.862 (host) and 20.0.2014 (application) stores private cryptographic keys within the Docker overlay filesystem. This exposes sensitive key material that persists in container layers and can be extracted by attackers with container escape or host access, enabling authentication bypass or data decryption.

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.
-
Determine VA Host versionLog into the Virtual Appliance and run: cat /etc/version or ls /opt/printnerlogic/version 2>/dev/null; alternatively, check the PrinterLogic admin panel for the Host version under System Maintenance or About sectionAffected if Version is below 22.0.862
-
Determine Application versionLog into the PrinterLogic admin panel and navigate to Administration > System Maintenance > About, or run: docker ps | grep -i app and inspect the container version tagAffected if Version is below 20.0.2014
-
Inspect Docker overlay filesystem for private keysRun: docker info --format '{{ .DockerRootDir }}' to find the Docker data directory, then examine contents under /var/lib/docker/overlay2/ for .key, .pem, or private key files using find /var/lib/docker/overlay2 -type f \( -name "*.key" -o -name "*.pem" -o -name "*private*" \) 2>/dev/nullAffected if Any private key files (.key, .pem) exist in Docker overlay directories
-
Check for SSL/TLS certificate storage locationsExamine common certificate directories inside Docker containers: ls -la /etc/ssl/private/ /opt/ PrinterLogic/ssl/ /var/opt/PrinterLogic/ssl/ 2>/dev/null inside the application container, or inspect mounted volumesAffected if Private certificates or keys are stored in application data directories accessible via Docker overlay
-
Verify Docker filesystem access exposureCheck if the Docker storage driver is overlay2: docker info --format '{{ .Driver }}'. If using overlay2, verify file permissions on /var/lib/docker/overlay2/ are not world-readable or accessible via container escapeAffected if Docker uses overlay2 driver and overlay filesystem directories are accessible beyond intended container isolation
You are affected if either the VA Host version is below 22.0.862 or the Application version is below 20.0.2014, and private keys exist in Docker overlay filesystem locations on the appliance.

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.
dbcve · scoped20.0.201422.0.862
Migrate private keys to a proper secrets management solution (e.g., Docker Secrets, Kubernetes Secrets, HashiCorp Vault), regenerate all exposed keys, and ensure sensitive material is never stored in container images or overlay filesystems.
Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.862 / Vasion Print Application 20.0.2014 or higher
- Backup current Vasion Print configuration and data
- Upgrade Virtual Appliance Host to version 22.0.862 or higher
- Upgrade Vasion Print Application to version 20.0.2014 or higher
- Verify the upgrade completed successfully by checking the version numbers in the admin console
- Confirm that private keys are no longer exposed in Docker overlay filesystem
