| CVE | Sev | Risk | CVSS | EPSS | KEV | Published | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2025-13084 | Hig | 0.49 | 7.6 | 0.00 | Nov 26, 2025 | The users endpoint in the groov View API returns a list of all users and associated metadata including their API keys. This endpoint requires an Editor role to access and will display API keys for all users, including Administrators. | |
| CVE-2025-30038 | Hig | 0.47 | — | 0.00 | Aug 27, 2025 | The vulnerability consists of a session ID leak when saving a file downloaded from CGM CLININET. The identifier is exposed through a built-in Windows security feature that stores additional metadata in an NTFS alternate data stream (ADS) for all files downloaded from potentially untrusted sources. | |
| CVE-2023-6962 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | May 2, 2024 | The WP Meta SEO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.12 via the meta description. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to disclose potentially sensitive information via the meta description of password-protected posts. | |
| CVE-2025-31959 | Low | 0.23 | 3.5 | 0.00 | May 6, 2026 | HCL BigFix Service Management (SM) application fails to strip EXIF metadata from uploaded images. This could lead to confidentiality and privacy risks if sensitive location information is unintentionally shared. . | |
| CVE-2025-8713 | Low | 0.20 | 3.1 | 0.00 | Aug 14, 2025 | PostgreSQL optimizer statistics allow a user to read sampled data within a view that the user cannot access. Separately, statistics allow a user to read sampled data that a row security policy intended to hide. PostgreSQL maintains statistics for tables by sampling data available in columns; this data is consulted during the query planning process. Prior to this release, a user could craft a leaky operator that bypassed view access control lists (ACLs) and bypassed row security policies in partitioning or table inheritance hierarchies. Reachable statistics data notably included histograms and most-common-values lists. CVE-2017-7484 and CVE-2019-10130 intended to close this class of vulnerability, but this gap remained. Versions before PostgreSQL 17.6, 16.10, 15.14, 14.19, and 13.22 are affected. |
