CVE-2025-12317

When internal roles are removed from a user within the WSO2 product, the system fails to invalidate any previously issued authentication tokens associated with that user. This vulnerability could allow users to retain their previous access privileges even after their roles have been revoked. As a result, a user can continue to perform unauthorized actions or access restricted resources until the expired tokens naturally expire.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, with an ordinary user login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
