CVE-2025-32897

Apache Seata (incubating): Deserialization of untrusted Data in Apache Seata Server

Published Jun 28, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 9.8 Critical EPSS 2.0% KEV · Not listed
Description
Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Seata (incubating).

This security vulnerability is the same as CVE-2024-47552, but the version range described in the CVE-2024-47552 definition is too narrow.
This issue affects Apache Seata (incubating): from 2.0.0 before 2.3.0.

Severity Justification:
The Apache Seata security team assesses the severity of this vulnerability as "Low" due to stringent real-world mitigating factors. First, the vulnerability is strictly isolated to the Raft cluster mode, an optional and non-default feature introduced in v2.0.0, while most users rely on the unaffected traditional architecture. Second, Seata is an internal middleware; communication between TC and RM/TM occurs entirely within trusted internal networks. An attacker would require prior, unauthorized access to the Intranet to exploit this, making external exploitation highly improbable.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.3.0, which fixes the issue.
