How severe is CVE-2025-27888?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2025-27888 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2025-27888?

CVE-2025-27888 affects the following packages: org.apache.druid:druid (Maven), org.apache.druid:druid (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2025-27888?

Update org.apache.druid:druid to 31.0.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-27888 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2025-27888 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.apache.druid:druid. 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-2025-27888 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-2025-27888?

O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2025-27888 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-2025-27888 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2025-27888 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 type of vulnerability is CVE-2025-27888?

CVE-2025-27888 is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79), Open Redirect (CWE-601), Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CWE-918). These weakness types 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.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2025-27888?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2025-27888, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was CVE-2025-27888 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2025-27888 was published on March 20, 2025 and was last updated on July 15, 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

Severity: medium (5.8) / important

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') vulnerability in Apache Druid.

This issue affects all previous Druid versions.

When using the Druid management proxy, a request that has a specially crafted URL could be used to redirect the request to an arbitrary server instead. This has the potential for XSS or XSRF. The user is required to be authenticated for this exploit. The management proxy is enabled in Druid's out-of-box configuration. It may be disabled to mitigate this vulnerability. If the management proxy is disabled, some web console features will not work properly, but core functionality is unaffected.

Users are recommended to upgrade to Druid 31.0.2 or Druid 32.0.1, which fixes the issue.
