Overview

CVE-2025-22654 is an Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability affecting Kodeshpa Simplified versions through 1.0.6. The vulnerability was discovered and disclosed on February 18, 2025, allowing attackers to upload malicious files without proper restrictions (NVD, Patchstack).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type) and has received a Critical CVSS v3.1 base score of 10.0 with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H. This indicates that the vulnerability can be exploited remotely with low attack complexity, requires no privileges or user interaction, and can result in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (NVD, TheSecMaster).

Impact

The exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to severe consequences including remote code execution (RCE), complete system compromise, data theft, and full system takeover. Due to the unrestricted nature of the file upload vulnerability, attackers can upload arbitrary files of dangerous types, potentially gaining unauthorized access to sensitive data, modifying system configurations, or disrupting services (TheSecMaster).

Mitigation and workarounds

The primary mitigation strategy is to upgrade to version 1.0.7 or later which contains the fix for this vulnerability. If immediate upgrading is not possible, organizations should implement strict file type and extension validation, use file content inspection and sanitization, limit upload permissions, and configure web servers to prevent execution of uploaded files (TheSecMaster).
