How to Fix CVE-2025-29313

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

org.opendaylight.sfc:odl-sfc-openflow-renderer fixed: Latest secure release 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.opendaylight.sfc</groupId>
    <artifactId>odl-sfc-openflow-renderer</artifactId>
    <version>Latest secure release</version>
</dependency>
org.opendaylight.sfc:odl-sfc-ovs fixed: Latest secure release 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.opendaylight.sfc</groupId>
    <artifactId>odl-sfc-ovs</artifactId>
    <version>Latest secure release</version>
</dependency>
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 -Dincludes=org.opendaylight.sfc

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2025-29313, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.opendaylight.sfc

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Odl sfc openflow renderer 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 -Dincludes=org.opendaylight.sfc 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-404: Improper Resource Shutdown or Release, where the product does not release or incorrectly releases a resource before it is made available for re-use. In Odl sfc openflow renderer, 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

Use of incorrectly resolved name or reference in OpenDaylight Service Function Chaining (SFC) Subproject SFC Sodium-SR4 and below allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
