Last modified

CVE-2025-14779 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The Secret Type Management REST API does not correctly isolate access controls when deleting a secret type. The on-delete cascade logic, when triggered, fails to enforce organizational boundaries, leading to the removal of secrets associated with that type across all organizations. Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in the unintended deletion of secrets across the entire deployment, potentially causing configuration failures, service interruptions, and a denial-of-service condition. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
