How to Fix CVE-2025-62198

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Apache Atlas UI 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.apache.atlas:atlas-dashboardv2 fixed: 2.5.0 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.atlas</groupId>
    <artifactId>atlas-dashboardv2</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.0</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.apache.atlas

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2025-62198, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.atlas

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Apache Atlas UI in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.5.0), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.atlas 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-80: Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS), where the product receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special characters such as "<", ">", and "&" that could be interpreted as web-scripting elements when they are sent to a downstream component that processes web pages. In Apache Atlas UI, 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

An authenticated user can perform XSS. This issue affects Apache Atlas versions 2.4.0 and earlier. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.5.0, which fixes the issue.
