Confidentiality: Low
Integrity: None
Availability: None

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: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Changed: An exploited vulnerability can affect resources beyond the security scope managed by the security authority of the vulnerable component. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are different and managed by different security authorities.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 19 Dec 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

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 2026-10-25.

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.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-67844, organizations should implement strict validation of repository owner and name fields against the GitHub App Installation ID within the Mintlify Platform's API configuration. This validation must ensure that only repositories legitimately associated with the user's organization and installation ID can be accessed. Until an official patch is released, organizations should restrict API access to trusted users and monitor API logs for unusual or unauthorized repository access attempts. Employing least privilege principles for GitHub App installations and limiting the scope of repository access can reduce exposure. Additionally, organizations should conduct internal audits of repository metadata access and review integration configurations for potential misconfigurations. If possible, temporarily disable or limit the use of the Mintlify GitHub Integration API in sensitive environments. Finally, maintain awareness of vendor updates and apply patches promptly once available.

Description

The GitHub Integration API in Mintlify Platform before 2025-11-15 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive repository metadata via the repository owner and name fields. It fails to validate that the repository owner and name fields provided during configuration belong to the specific GitHub App Installation ID associated with the user's organization.

Impact

For European organizations, the primary impact of CVE-2025-67844 is unauthorized disclosure of sensitive repository metadata, which could include project details, configuration data, or other intellectual property. This exposure could facilitate further attacks such as social engineering, reconnaissance for supply chain attacks, or leakage of proprietary information. Organizations relying on Mintlify Platform integrated with GitHub for documentation or development workflows may inadvertently expose internal or private repository information to unauthorized users within their organization or potentially to external attackers with compromised credentials. While the vulnerability does not allow modification or deletion of data, the confidentiality breach could undermine trust, violate data protection regulations such as GDPR if personal or sensitive data is exposed, and cause reputational damage. The requirement for some privileges to exploit limits the risk to insiders or attackers who have gained limited access, but the network attack vector means exploitation can occur remotely. The absence of patches increases the urgency for mitigation.
