CVE-2025-34206
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) Virtual Appliance Host and Application (VA and SaaS deployments) mount host configuration and secret material under /var/www/efs_storage into many Docker containers with overly-permissive filesystem permissions. Files such as secrets.env, GPG-encrypted blobs in .secrets, MySQL client keys, and application session files are accessible from multiple containers. An attacker who controls or reaches any container can read or modify these artifacts, leading to credential theft, RCE via Laravel APP_KEY, Portainer takeover, and full compromise.
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 mounts sensitive configuration and secret files from /var/www/efs_storage into multiple Docker containers with overly-permissive permissions, allowing any compromised container to read secrets.env, GPG blobs, MySQL keys, and session files, leading to credential theft and full system compromise.

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 Vasion Virtual Appliance installationCheck if the system is running Vasion Print Virtual Appliance by examining /etc/os-release, hostname, or running 'docker ps' to list containers with 'vasion' or 'print' in namesAffected if The system is confirmed to be a Vasion Virtual Appliance (Application or Host)
-
Locate sensitive file mount directoryVerify the existence of /var/www/efs_storage directory on the appliance host or within containers: run 'ls -la /var/www/efs_storage' on host or 'docker exec <container> ls -la /var/www/efs_storage' inside containersAffected if The /var/www/efs_storage directory exists and contains configuration files
-
Check secrets.env file permissionsRun 'ls -la' on secrets.env within /var/www/efs_storage or search for it: 'find /var/www/efs_storage -name secrets.env -exec ls -la {} \;'Affected if secrets.env file is readable by all users (permissions show 'world-readable' or 'other' has 'r' permission, such as 644 or more permissive)
-
Inspect GPG blob and MySQL key file permissionsSearch for GPG files and MySQL key files in /var/www/efs_storage: 'find /var/www/efs_storage -name '*.gpg' -o -name '*mysql*' -o -name '*key*' | xargs ls -la 2>/dev/null'Affected if GPG blobs or MySQL keys are readable by all users (world-readable permissions)
-
Verify Docker container mount accessExamine Docker container mounts: run 'docker inspect <container> --format '{{.Mounts}}'' for each container and check if /var/www/efs_storage is mounted with readable permissions for the container userAffected if Containers have /var/www/efs_storage mounted and can read sensitive files without restriction
If this is a Vasion Virtual Appliance with /var/www/efs_storage containing secrets.env, GPG blobs, or MySQL keys that are world-readable or accessible to all containers, the environment is affected by CVE-2025-34206.

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 dataRestrict filesystem permissions on mounted secrets/config files to enforce least-privilege access per container, implement proper secret isolation, rotate all exposed credentials (including Laravel APP_KEY and database credentials), and review container network segmentation.
