Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 7 Aug 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

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.

AI-suggested

Red Hat has released an updated version of OpenShift API for Data Protection that addresses this vulnerability. Users should apply the update as per Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2026:2951 after ensuring all previously released errata relevant to their system have been applied. No additional mitigations are specified or required beyond applying the official fix.

Description

OpenShift API for Data Protection (OADP) enables you to back up and restore application resources, persistent volume data, and internal container images to external backup storage. OADP enables both file system-based and snapshot-based backups for persistent volumes.

Impact

The vulnerability can cause inconsistent data to be returned to applications using the affected database/sql package when queries are cancelled concurrently. This may lead to data integrity issues and potential denial of service conditions due to resource exhaustion or crashes. However, the scope of exploitation is limited to applications that cancel queries while running multiple queries concurrently. There is no indication of direct compromise or privilege escalation in typical deployments.

Summary

CVE-2025-47907 is a race condition vulnerability in the database/sql package used by Red Hat OpenShift API for Data Protection. When a query is cancelled during a Scan method call on returned Rows, concurrent queries can produce unexpected and inconsistent results due to improper synchronization. This flaw could allow an attacker capable of initiating and cancelling queries to trigger inconsistent data returns. The vulnerability is related to CWE-362 (race condition), CWE-59, and CWE-1050, and impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability to varying degrees. Red Hat has released a security advisory (RHSA-2026:2951) with a fix for this issue.

CWE-362Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') (opens in a new tab)
Class weaknessLikelihood of exploit: MediumOWASP Top 10 A06:2025: Insecure Design (opens in a new tab)
The product contains a concurrent code sequence that requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence operating concurrently.
Architecture and Design
In languages that support it, use synchronization primitives. Only wrap these around critical code to minimize the impact on performance.
Architecture and Design
Use thread-safe capabilities such as the data access abstraction in Spring.
Architecture and Design
Minimize the usage of shared resources in order to remove as much complexity as possible from the control flow and to reduce the likelihood of unexpected conditions occurring.

Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: MediumOWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The product attempts to access a file based on the filename, but it does not properly prevent that filename from identifying a link or shortcut that resolves to an unintended resource.
