mayan-edms fixed: 4.7.8
pip install mayan-edms>=4.7.8
mayan-edms fixed: 4.6.12
pip install mayan-edms>=4.6.12
mayan-edms fixed: 4.10.2
pip install mayan-edms>=4.10.2
mayan-edms fixed: 4.9.7
pip install mayan-edms>=4.9.7
mayan-edms fixed: 4.8.10
pip install mayan-edms>=4.8.10
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 mayan-edms

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2025-14692, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show mayan-edms

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Mayan edms in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 4.7.8), your application is affected.

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

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-601: URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect'), where the web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect. In Mayan edms, 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

A flaw has been found in Mayan EDMS up to 4.10.1. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file /authentication/. This manipulation causes open redirect. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. Upgrading to version 4.10.2 is sufficient to resolve this issue. The affected component should be upgraded. The vendor confirms that this is "[f]ixed in version 4.10.2". Furthermore, that "[b]ackports for older versions in process and will be out as soon as their respective CI pipelines complete."
