CVE-2025-66418highpkg:pypi/urllib3@2.3.0>=1.24,<2.6.02.6.08.9

Impact

urllib3 supports chained HTTP encoding algorithms for response content according to RFC 9110 (e.g., Content-Encoding: gzip, zstd).

However, the number of links in the decompression chain was unbounded allowing a malicious server to insert a virtually unlimited number of compression steps leading to high CPU usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data.

Affected usages

Applications and libraries using urllib3 version 2.5.0 and earlier for HTTP requests to untrusted sources unless they disable content decoding explicitly.

Remediation

Upgrade to at least urllib3 v2.6.0 in which the library limits the number of links to 5.

If upgrading is not immediately possible, use preload_content=False and ensure that resp.headers["content-encoding"] contains a safe number of encodings before reading the response content.

Relevance:

The CVE-2025-66418 is relevant if the Kafka Connect instance interacts with untrusted external systems or processes user-supplied data, as it could lead to remote code execution. It becomes critical in environments where Kafka Connect is exposed to external networks or processes sensitive data without strict access controls. For isolated, internal usage with trusted inputs, the impact is likely minimal. (Note: Relevance analysis is automatically generated and may require verification.)

Severity Levels

Exploitation could lead to severe consequences, such as system compromise or data loss. Requires immediate attention.

Vulnerability could be exploited relatively easily and lead to significant impact. Requires prompt attention.

Exploitation is possible but might require specific conditions. Impact is moderate. Should be addressed in a timely manner.

Exploitation is difficult or impact is minimal. Address when convenient or as part of regular maintenance.

Severity is not determined, informational, or negligible. Review based on context.

About the CVE Scanner

What is a CVE?

CVE stands for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures. It is a standardized identifier for known security vulnerabilities, allowing developers and organizations to track and address potential risks effectively. For more information, visit cve.mitre.org.

About the CVE Scanner

The CVE Scanner is a powerful tool that helps you identify known vulnerabilities in your Docker images. By scanning your images against a comprehensive database of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), you can ensure that your applications are secure and up-to-date. For more details, checkout the NIST CVE Database.

How the CVE Scanner Works

The CVE Scanner analyzes your Docker images against a comprehensive database of known vulnerabilities. It uses Docker Scout under the hood to provide detailed insights into affected packages, severity levels, and available fixes, empowering you to take immediate action.

Why CVE Scanning is Essential for Your Docker Images

With the rise of supply chain attacks, ensuring the security of your applications has become more critical than ever. CVE scanning plays a vital role in identifying vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers, especially those introduced through dependencies and third-party components. Regularly scanning and securing your Docker images is essential to protect your applications from these evolving threats.

Benefits of CVE Scanning

  • Enhanced Security: Detect and mitigate vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
  • Compliance: Meet industry standards and regulatory requirements for secure software.
  • Proactive Maintenance: Stay ahead of potential threats by addressing vulnerabilities early.

The Importance of Patching Docker Images

Patching your Docker images is a critical step in maintaining the security and stability of your applications. By regularly updating your images to include the latest security patches, you can address known vulnerabilities and reduce the risk of exploitation. This proactive approach ensures that your applications remain resilient against emerging threats and helps maintain compliance with security best practices.
