CVE-2025-66378
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 · uneditedPexip Infinity 38.0 and 38.1 before 39.0 has insufficient access control in the RTMP implementation, allowing an attacker to disconnect RTMP streams traversing a Proxy Node.
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 confidencePexip Infinity versions 38.0 and 38.1 contain insufficient access control in the RTMP implementation. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to disconnect RTMP streams traversing a Proxy Node by sending specially crafted network packets, causing service disruption for media streams.

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 the installed Pexip Infinity versionAccess the Pexip Infinity admin interface or use the management API to retrieve the current software version. Compare this version against the affected range: version 38.0 or 38.1, or any version >= 38.0 but < 39.0.Affected if The installed version falls within 38.0 to 38.1 inclusive, or any 38.x release prior to 39.0.
-
Determine if RTMP functionality is in useReview the Pexip Infinity deployment configuration to identify whether RTMP streaming or RTMP ingress/egress is enabled. Check the Proxy Node settings for RTMP stream configurations.Affected if RTMP streaming is configured and active on any Proxy Node in the deployment.
-
Confirm Proxy Node deploymentVerify that Proxy Nodes are part of the Pexip Infinity architecture, as the vulnerability specifically affects RTMP streams traversing Proxy Nodes.Affected if Proxy Nodes are deployed and handling media traffic in the environment.
-
Review for RTMP disconnect eventsExamine system logs, RTMP service logs, and Proxy Node event logs for unusual or unauthorized RTMP stream disconnection events occurring from external sources.Affected if Logs show unexpected RTMP stream disconnects originating from unauthenticated or unexpected network sources.
-
Inspect RTMP access control settingsCheck the RTMP implementation configuration in the admin interface to determine if access control restrictions are properly configured for incoming RTMP connections.Affected if RTMP access controls are missing, weak, or improperly configured.
A user is affected if their Pexip Infinity deployment runs version 38.0 or 38.1 (or any version >= 38.0 but < 39.0), has RTMP streaming enabled, and includes Proxy Nodes handling RTMP traffic.

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 · scoped39.0
Upgrade Pexip Infinity to version 39.0 or later to obtain the access control fix. Review RTMP stream configurations and monitor for unauthorized disconnect attempts until patching is complete.
39.0 or later
- Upgrade Pexip Infinity from version 38.0 or 38.1 to version 39.0 or later to resolve the insufficient access control vulnerability in the RTMP implementation
