How to Fix CVE-2025-69662

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

geopandas fixed: 1.1.2 
pip install geopandas>=1.1.2
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

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

pip show geopandas

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2025-69662, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show geopandas

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Geopandas in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.1.2), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show geopandas command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-202: Exposure of Sensitive Information Through Data Queries, where when trying to keep information confidential, an attacker can often infer some of the information by using statistics.
