Summary

Robocode has an insecure temporary file creation vulnerability in the AutoExtract component

An insecure temporary file creation vulnerability exists in the AutoExtract component of Robocode version 1.9.3.6. The createTempFile method fails to securely create temporary files, allowing attackers to exploit race conditions and potentially execute arbitrary code or overwrite critical files. This vulnerability can be exploited by manipulating the temporary file creation process, leading to potential unauthorized actions.

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is CVE-2025-14307? CVE-2025-14307 is a critical-severity security vulnerability in net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle (maven), affecting versions < 1.9.5.6. It is fixed in 1.9.5.6.
  2. Which versions of net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle are affected by CVE-2025-14307? net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle (maven) versions < 1.9.5.6 is affected.
  3. Is there a fix for CVE-2025-14307? Yes. CVE-2025-14307 is fixed in 1.9.5.6. Upgrade to this version or later.
  4. Is CVE-2025-14307 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2025-14307 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

  5. What actually determines whether CVE-2025-14307 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
  6. How do I fix CVE-2025-14307? Upgrade net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle to 1.9.5.6 or later.
