Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the impacted component.
Integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact on the impacted component.
Availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the impacted component are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 25 Jun 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

1. Immediate upgrade to Tuleap Community Edition 16.8.99.1749830289 or Enterprise Edition 16.9-1 to apply the official patch addressing the CSRF vulnerability. 2. Implement strict Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to reduce the risk of malicious cross-site requests. 3. Educate users, especially those with privileged access, about the risks of clicking on untrusted links or visiting suspicious websites while authenticated to Tuleap. 4. Review and restrict user privileges to the minimum necessary to reduce the impact of potential CSRF attacks. 5. Monitor application logs for unusual changes to canned responses or other configuration settings that could indicate exploitation attempts. 6. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAF) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious CSRF attack patterns targeting Tuleap endpoints. 7. Regularly audit and test the application environment for CSRF and other web vulnerabilities to ensure ongoing protection.

Description

Tuleap is an Open Source Suite to improve management of software developments and collaboration. An attacker could use a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in Tuleap Community Edition prior to version 16.8.99.1749830289 and Tuleap Enterprise Edition prior to version 16.9-1 to trick victims into changing the canned responses. Tuleap Community Edition 16.8.99.1749830289 and Tuleap Enterprise Edition 16.9-1 contain a patch for the issue.

Impact

For European organizations using Tuleap, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized modification of canned responses, potentially causing misinformation, workflow disruption, or social engineering opportunities within development and collaboration processes. While it does not directly compromise confidentiality, the integrity and availability of certain collaboration features are at risk. This could degrade operational efficiency, introduce errors in issue tracking or communication, and potentially facilitate further attacks if attackers manipulate responses to mislead users. Organizations relying heavily on Tuleap for project management or compliance tracking may face increased operational risk. Given the requirement for user interaction and privileges, the threat is more pronounced in environments where users have elevated permissions and may be targeted via phishing or malicious links. The absence of known exploits reduces immediate risk but does not eliminate the potential for future exploitation, especially as the vulnerability is publicly disclosed.

Compound weaknessLikelihood of exploit: MediumCWE Top 25 (2025): #3OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Implementation
Ensure that the application is free of cross-site scripting issues (CWE-79), because most CSRF defenses can be bypassed using attacker-controlled script.
Architecture and Design
Generate a unique nonce for each form, place the nonce into the form, and verify the nonce upon receipt of the form. Be sure that the nonce is not predictable (CWE-330).
