CVE-2025-58175 is a medium-severity improper input validation vulnerability in org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app (maven), affecting versions <= 2.26.3. It is fixed in 2.26.4, 2.27.3.
Summary A GeoServer that uses ENTITYRESOLUTIONALLOWLIST may allow attacker to perform unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). Details This vulnerability requires that GeoServer is set up to use a proxy base URL and the ENTITYRESOLUTIONALLOWLIST (default since 2.25.0): Impact This vulnerability allows an attacker to cause GeoServer to make requests to an unintended location. Workaround GeoServer installations are only affected by this vulnerability if they use a proxy base URL that does not contain a URL path or end with a slash (e.g., https://somesite.org instead of https://somesite.org/ or https://somesite.org/geoserver). If the proxy base URL does not contain a path, adding a slash to the end of the URL will mitigate this vulnerability.

The application does not adequately validate input before processing it, allowing unexpected values to reach sensitive code paths. Typical impact: varies by context: data corruption, logic bypass, or denial of service.
CVE-2025-58175 has a CVSS score of 6.5 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, no privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment.
A fixed version is available (2.26.4, 2.27.3). Upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

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 instead of chasing every advisory.
Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether CVE-2025-58175 is reachable in your applications. Explore open-source security for your team.

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.
