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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
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: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

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 30 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.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity 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.

AI-suggested

Users should upgrade to Apache DolphinScheduler version 3.2.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. For users unable to upgrade immediately, restrict the exposed management endpoints by setting the environment variable MANAGEMENT_ENDPOINTS_WEB_EXPOSURE_INCLUDE=health,metrics,prometheus or by adding the equivalent configuration in application.yaml under management.endpoints.web.exposure.include. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed; users should verify the latest vendor advisory for official fixes.

Description

CVE-2025-62188 is a high-severity vulnerability in Apache DolphinScheduler version 3.1.0 that allows unauthorized actors to access sensitive information, including database credentials. This exposure of sensitive information (CWE-200) can lead to confidentiality breaches. The vulnerability affects management endpoints that are overly exposed by default. Users are advised to upgrade to version 3.2.0 or later to remediate the issue. As a temporary workaround, restricting exposed management endpoints via environment variables or application configuration is recommended. No known exploits are reported in the wild.

Impact

Unauthorized actors may gain access to sensitive information including database credentials, potentially compromising confidentiality. There is no indication of impact on integrity or availability. The vulnerability affects Apache DolphinScheduler 3.1.0 and could lead to information disclosure if exploited.

Summary

Apache DolphinScheduler version 3.1.0 contains a vulnerability classified as CWE-200, where sensitive information such as database credentials can be accessed by unauthorized actors through exposed management endpoints. The vulnerability is addressed in version 3.2.0 and later. Temporary mitigation involves limiting the management endpoints exposed over the web to only health, metrics, and prometheus endpoints by setting the environment variable MANAGEMENT_ENDPOINTS_WEB_EXPOSURE_INCLUDE or configuring the application.yaml accordingly. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.5, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and high confidentiality impact.

MITRE discourages mapping vulnerabilities to this broad entry; the root cause is usually a more specific weakness.
Architecture and Design · Separation of Privilege
Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
