How severe is CVE-2025-32395?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2025-32395 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2025-32395?

CVE-2025-32395 affects the following packages: vite (npm), vite (npm), vite (npm), vite (npm), vite (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2025-32395?

Update vite to 6.2.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-32395 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2025-32395 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for vite, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2025-32395 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them.

Is CVE-2025-32395 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2025-32395 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-2025-32395?

CVE-2025-32395 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.8%, placing it in the 79th 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-2025-32395?

CVE-2025-32395 is classified as Information Exposure (CWE-200). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2025-32395?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2025-32395, 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-2025-32395 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2025-32395 was published on April 10, 2025 and was last updated on November 4, 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

Summary

The contents of arbitrary files can be returned to the browser if the dev server is running on Node or Bun.

Impact

Only apps with the following conditions are affected.

explicitly exposing the Vite dev server to the network (using --host or server.host config option)
running the Vite dev server on runtimes that are not Deno (e.g. Node, Bun)

Details

HTTP 1.1 spec (RFC 9112) does not allow # in request-target. Although an attacker can send such a request. For those requests with an invalid request-line (it includes request-target), the spec recommends to reject them with 400 or 301. The same can be said for HTTP 2 (ref1, ref2, ref3).

On Node and Bun, those requests are not rejected internally and is passed to the user land. For those requests, the value of http.IncomingMessage.url contains #. Vite assumed req.url won't contain # when checking server.fs.deny, allowing those kinds of requests to bypass the check.

On Deno, those requests are not rejected internally and is passed to the user land as well. But for those requests, the value of http.IncomingMessage.url did not contain #.

How to detect CVE-2025-32395

A community-maintained Nuclei template exists for this CVE. You can scan for it directly:

nuclei -id cve-2025-32395 -u https://target

Template: Vite - Path Traversal
Severity: medium
Impact: An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the Vite dev server (commonly exposed during development or in misconfigured deployments) can read arbitrary files on the host filesystem.
Remediation: Update to version 6.2.6, 6.1.5, 6.0.15, 5.4.18, or 4.5.13 or later.
