OXARI ServiceDesk: Direct Request
CVE-2025-1542 is a critical-severity direct request vulnerability in OXARI ServiceDesk from Infonet Projekt SA, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.3 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2.0.324.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating OXARI ServiceDesk to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.41% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
