No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2022-25167 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2022-25167?

CVE-2022-25167 affects the following packages: org.apache.flume.flume-ng-sources:flume-jms-source (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2022-25167?

Update org.apache.flume.flume-ng-sources:flume-jms-source to 1.10.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-25167 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2022-25167 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.apache.flume.flume-ng-sources:flume-jms-source, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2022-25167 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2022-25167?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2022-25167 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is CVE-2022-25167 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2022-25167 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2022-25167?

CVE-2022-25167 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 5.1%, placing it in the 92th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2022-25167?

CVE-2022-25167 is classified as Improper Input Validation (CWE-20), CWE-74 (CWE-74). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2022-25167 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2022-25167 was published on June 15, 2022 and was last updated on December 7, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Apache Flume versions 1.4.0 through 1.9.0 are vulnerable to a remote code execution (RCE) attack when a configuration uses a JMS Source with a JNDI LDAP data source URI when an attacker has control of the target LDAP server. This issue is fixed by limiting JNDI to allow only the use of the java protocol or no protocol.
