Summary
Description
A path traversal vulnerability in FUXA allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem. This affects FUXA through version 1.2.9. This issue has been patched in FUXA version 1.2.10.
Notes
GitHub stated this vulnerability is identical to CVE-2025-69981, which was published against the repository out of band before coordinated disclosure concluded. CVE-2025-69981 describes a "CWE-434: Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type" vulnerability. While a CWE-434 is present, it was an unsafe, intended feature of the application that has been locked behind authentication. This report describes a "CWE-35: Path Traversal" that enables an arbitrary file write.
Impact
This affects all deployments, including those with runtime.settings.secureEnabled set to true.
Exploitation allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to overwrite application and system files. If the attacker can overwrite application code, startup scripts, or configuration files that are later executed/loaded, RCE is likely. Depending on deployment configuration and permissions, this may lead to full system compromise and could further expose connected ICS/SCADA environments to follow-on actions.
Input manipulates file paths to reach files outside the intended directory, such as configuration or credential files. Typical impact: unauthorized file read or write outside the intended directory.

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
This issue has been patched in FUXA version 1.2.10. Users are strongly encouraged to update to the latest available release.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2026-25895? CVE-2026-25895 is a critical-severity path traversal vulnerability in fuxa-server (npm), affecting versions <= 1.2.9. It is fixed in 1.2.10. Input manipulates file paths to reach files outside the intended directory, such as configuration or credential files.
- Which versions of fuxa-server are affected by CVE-2026-25895? fuxa-server (npm) versions <= 1.2.9 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2026-25895? Yes. CVE-2026-25895 is fixed in 1.2.10. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2026-25895 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2026-25895 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-2026-25895 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.
