How to Fix CVE-2025-10282

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

bbot fixed: 2.7.2 
pip install bbot>=2.7.2
bbot fixed: 2.7.2 
pip install bbot>=2.7.2
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 bbot

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2025-10282, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show bbot

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Bbot in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.7.2), your application is affected.

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

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. In Bbot, 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

### Summary bbot's `gitlab.py` sends the user's "gitlab" API key to on-premise GitLab instances. If a user has configured a gitlab.com API key using this mechanism, it may be leaked to an attacker-controlled server. ### Impact A user with a "gitlab" API key configured who uses bbot to scan a malicious webserver may leak their gitlab.com API key to an untrustworthy server.
