Summary
Overview
OpenFGA v1.4.0 to v1.11.0 (openfga-0.1.34 <= Helm chart <= openfga-0.2.48, v.1.4.0 <= docker <= v.1.11.0) are vulnerable to improper policy enforcement when certain Check and ListObject calls are executed.
Am I Affected?
You are affected by this vulnerability if you meet the following preconditions:
- You are using OpenFGA v1.4.0 to v1.11.0
- The model has a a relation directly assignable by a type bound pubic access with condition
- The same relation is not assignable by a type bound public access without condition
- You have a type assigned for the same relation that is a type bound public access without condition
Workaround
None
Impact
Affected versions
Security releases
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.
Remediation advice
Upgrade to v1.11.1. This upgrade is backwards compatible.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2025-64751? CVE-2025-64751 is a medium-severity security vulnerability in github.com/openfga/openfga (go), affecting versions >= 1.4.0, < 1.11.1. It is fixed in 1.11.1.
- Which versions of github.com/openfga/openfga are affected by CVE-2025-64751? github.com/openfga/openfga (go) versions >= 1.4.0, < 1.11.1 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2025-64751? Yes. CVE-2025-64751 is fixed in 1.11.1. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2025-64751 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2025-64751 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.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2025-64751 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.
