CVE-2025-62232
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 · uneditedSensitive data exposure via logging in basic-auth leads to plaintext usernames and passwords written to error logs and forwarded to log sinks when log level is INFO/DEBUG. This creates a high risk of credential compromise through log access. It has been fixed in the following commit: https://github.com/apache/apisix/pull/12629 Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.14, which fixes this issue.
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 analysisSensitive values — secrets, tokens, session identifiers, personal data — are written into log files, so anyone with access to the logs, which is often a broad group, obtains them. It turns a routine diagnostic into a credential leak. The fix is redacting sensitive data before it is logged and tightly restricting who can read the logs.

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 · scoped3.14.0
3.14.0
- 1. Backup your current Apache APISIX configuration, including config.yaml and any custom plugins or Lua scripts
- 2. Stop the APISIX service gracefully to avoid interrupting active requests
- 3. Update your package repository and upgrade Apache APISIX to version 3.14.0 or later using your system's package manager (e.g., yum update apisix or apt-get install apisix)
- 4. Alternatively, if using Docker, pull and deploy the image tag apisix:3.14.0 or newer
- 5. After upgrade, verify that the /usr/local/apisix/conf/config.yaml (or your custom config path) is compatible with version 3.14.0
- 6. Start the APISIX service and confirm it initializes without errors
- 7. Test basic-auth functionality to ensure authentication works correctly post-upgrade
- 8. Review logs at INFO/DEBUG level to confirm credentials are no longer being written in plaintext
