Which packages are affected by CVE-2024-25122?

CVE-2024-25122 affects the following packages: sidekiq-unique-jobs (RubyGems), sidekiq-unique-jobs (RubyGems). Ecosystems affected: RubyGems.

How do I fix CVE-2024-25122?

Update sidekiq-unique-jobs to 8.0.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2024-25122 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2024-25122 in my RubyGems dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for sidekiq-unique-jobs. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

How do I mitigate CVE-2024-25122 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-2024-25122?

O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2024-25122 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is CVE-2024-25122 actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 1 known exploit references for CVE-2024-25122, including 1 in-the-wild exploitation observed on GitHub and other sources. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2024-25122?

CVE-2024-25122 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.5%, placing it in the 40th 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-2024-25122?

CVE-2024-25122 is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was CVE-2024-25122 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2024-25122 was published on February 13, 2024 and was last updated on April 10, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

sidekiq-unique-jobs is an open source project which prevents simultaneous Sidekiq jobs with the same unique arguments to run. Specially crafted GET request parameters handled by any of the following endpoints of sidekiq-unique-jobs' "admin" web UI, allow a super-user attacker, or an unwitting, but authorized, victim, who has received a disguised / crafted link, to successfully execute malicious code, which could potentially steal cookies, session data, or local storage data from the app the sidekiq-unique-jobs web UI is mounted in. 1. /changelogs, 2. /locks or 3. /expiring_locks. This issue has been addressed in versions 7.1.33 and 8.0.7. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
