Advisory Summary

CVE-2025-55274 is a LOW (CVSS 2.6) security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-942: Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a content security policy (csp) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.

How to Fix CVE-2025-55274

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2025-55274, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-942: Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains, where the product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a content security policy (csp) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

HCL Aftermarket DPC is affected by Cross-Origin Resource Sharing vulnerability. CORS misconfigurations includes the exposure of sensitive user information to attackers, unauthorized access to APIs, and possible data manipulation or leakage. If an attacker to exploit CORS misconfiguration, they could steal sensitive data, perform actions on behalf of a legitimate user.
