Possibilities of IP Spoofing via X-Forwarded-For (XFF) Header_CVE-2025-6504

8.4 / 10

HIGH

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

Description

In HDP Server versions below 4.6.2.2978 on Linux, unauthorized access could occur via IP spoofing using the X-Forwarded-For header.

Since XFF is a client-controlled header, it could be spoofed, allowing unauthorized access if the spoofed IP matched a whitelisted range.

This vulnerability could be exploited to bypass IP restrictions, though valid user credentials would still be required for resource access.
