CVE Alert: CVE-2025-11675 – Ragic – Enterprise Cloud Database

Risk verdict

High risk: remote code execution is feasible via arbitrary file upload when an attacker holds a high-privilege account; patch promptly.

Why this matters

The vulnerability enables uploading and executing a web shell, granting full control over the server. For customers relying on this cloud database service, that could mean data exposure or loss, persistent access, and service disruption, especially where admin-level credentials are used or shared.

Most likely attack path

An attacker would need a valid high-privilege credential to trigger a network-based upload channel. Exploitation proceeds with uploading a web shell, then remote code execution with the attacker’s shell. The attacker can operate without user interaction, potentially maintaining persistence within the web server scope and attempting targeted data access or lateral movement limited to the affected host.

Who is most exposed

Organisations using internet-facing instances of enterprise cloud database platforms with admin accounts or service accounts at risk; typical exposures include SaaS dashboards and API gateways that accept file uploads from web clients.

Detection ideas

• Unusual or new files in the web root/upload directory with executable extensions after upload attempts.
• Web server logs showing uploads to upload endpoints followed by subsequent access to new scripts or shells.
• Unexplained outbound connections or beaconing from the web server, or new admin/shell processes.
• Creation of new users or changes to privilege groups tied to the web service.
• Signatures of known web shell activity or anomalous process trees on the web host.

Mitigation and prioritisation

• Apply patch version 2025/09/12 12:55:15 or later immediately.
• Enable strict upload validation: allowlists, size/type checks, and sandboxed storage with no execution rights.
• Harden web app firewall rules to block arbitrary file uploads and known web-shell patterns; restrict upload directories.
• Enforce least privilege and MFA for admin accounts; rotate credentials; review access logs and disable unused accounts.
• Enhance monitoring and incident readiness: real-time alerting on new files in upload paths and unauthorized web-shell activity.
