EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
How urgent is this, really
CVE-2025-62415 plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 378,567 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.

Description
Summary
In Bagisto v2.3.7, the TinyMCE image upload functionality allows an attacker with sufficient privileges (e.g. admin) to upload a crafted HTML file containing embedded JavaScript. When viewed, the malicious code executes in the context of the admin/user’s browser.
Details
The application blocks the uploading of HTML files; however, if the backend detected that the content of the .png file is HTML or JavaScript, the file extension will be automatically converted from .png to .html. When the HTML is viewed, it will execute the JavaScript code.
PoC
Created a html file, renamed the extension to .png, and uploaded the file. It was converted to HTML file in the backend. When opened in another tab, the JavaScript code will execute. <img width="1605" height="702" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bd9406aa-2380-464f-ac21-32d483639969" /> <img width="1358" height="314" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e5a64a5a-39fb-4fdb-ada9-14c4b9554803" />
Impact
A aalicious script is stored in HTML file and executed when the content is viewed. An attacker (with upload privilege) can target other admin users or editors who view the content, enabling session hijacking, unauthorized actions, or privilege escalation.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for bagisto/bagisto, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update bagisto/bagisto to 2.3.8 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-62415 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
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 O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2025-62415 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2025-62415. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2025-62415 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds CVE-2025-62415 across Packagist dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
