CVE-2025-68637
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 · uneditedThe Uniffle HTTP client is configured to trust all SSL certificates and disables hostname verification by default. This insecure configuration exposes all REST API communication between the Uniffle CLI/client and the Uniffle Coordinator service to potential Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks. This issue affects all versions from before 0.10.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.10.0, which fixes the 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 analysis · high confidenceThe Uniffle HTTP client is configured to trust all SSL certificates and disables hostname verification by default. This insecure configuration allows attackers to intercept and manipulate REST API communication between the Uniffle CLI/client and the Coordinator service through Man-in-the-Middle attacks.

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 Uniffle installation and versionLocate the Uniffle installation directory and check the version. Common locations include /usr/local/uniffle, /opt/uniffle, or the directory where Uniffle was extracted. Look for a VERSION or version.txt file, or check the pom.xml if source is available. Run: find / -name 'uniffle*' -type d 2>/dev/null | head -5Affected if Installed version is lower than 0.10.0 (e.g., 0.9.0, 0.8.0, etc.)
-
Locate Uniffle client configuration filesFind configuration files used by the Uniffle HTTP client. Look in the conf/ directory under the Uniffle installation, or in /etc/uniffle/. Search for files containing SSL, HTTPS, or HTTP client settings. Common config names include uniffle-conf.xml, rss.conf, or client.properties.Affected if Configuration files exist but do not explicitly enable SSL certificate validation and hostname verification
-
Check for insecure SSL trust settingsSearch configuration files and Java properties for settings like 'trustAllSSL', 'ssl.trust.all', 'trustAll', 'verifyHostname=false', or similar patterns that disable certificate validation. Use: grep -ri 'trustAll\|ssl\.trust\|verifyHostname' /path/to/uniffle/conf/ 2>/dev/nullAffected if The configuration contains settings that disable SSL certificate validation (trustAll=true) or hostname verification (verifyHostname=false)
-
Inspect REST client code or properties for defaultsExamine the client-side configuration or properties file used when connecting to the Coordinator service. Look for 'rss.coordinator.*' connection settings. Check if ssl.enabled, ssl.client.trustCertification path, or client.ssl settings are absent or set to insecure values.Affected if No explicit SSL configuration exists, meaning the default (insecure) behavior applies
A user is affected if Uniffle version is below 0.10.0 AND the HTTP client connects to the Coordinator without explicit SSL certificate and hostname verification configuration.

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 · scoped0.10.0
Upgrade Uniffle to version 0.10.0 or later, which fixes the SSL certificate validation issue and re-enables proper hostname verification.
0.10.0
- Upgrade Uniffle to version 0.10.0 or later to resolve the insecure SSL configuration
