CVE-2025-54122
📋 TL;DR
An unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Manager accounting software allows attackers to make arbitrary HTTP requests from the vulnerable server. This bypasses network isolation and can expose internal services, cloud metadata, and sensitive data. All users running Manager Desktop or Server editions up to version 25.7.18.2519 are affected.
💻 Affected Systems
- Manager Desktop
- Manager Server
⚠️ Manual Verification Required
This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.
Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

- Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
- Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
- Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete network compromise: attacker accesses internal services, steals cloud credentials via metadata endpoints, exfiltrates sensitive data from isolated segments, and potentially pivots to other systems.
Likely Case
Data exfiltration from internal services accessible to the Manager server, exposure of cloud metadata, and reconnaissance of internal network services.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if network segmentation prevents access to sensitive internal services and cloud metadata endpoints are disabled.
🎯 Exploit Status
SSRF vulnerabilities are frequently weaponized. The unauthenticated nature and critical CVSS score make exploitation highly likely.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: 25.7.21.2525
Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/Manager-io/Manager/security/advisories/GHSA-347w-cgwh-m895
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Download Manager version 25.7.21.2525 or later from the official website. 2. Install the update following standard installation procedures. 3. Restart the Manager service or application.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Network Segmentation
allRestrict outbound HTTP/HTTPS traffic from Manager servers to only necessary destinations using firewall rules.
Disable Proxy Handler
allIf the proxy handler functionality is not required, disable it in the application configuration.
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict network egress filtering to block Manager servers from accessing internal services and cloud metadata endpoints.
- Deploy web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SSRF patterns in incoming requests.
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check the Manager version in the application's About or Help menu. If version is 25.7.18.2519 or earlier, the system is vulnerable.Check Version:
Check application UI or configuration files for version information.Verify Fix Applied:
After updating, verify the version shows 25.7.21.2525 or later in the About/Help menu.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual outbound HTTP requests from Manager server to internal IP ranges or cloud metadata endpoints
- Multiple failed authentication attempts followed by proxy requests
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests from Manager server to internal services not normally accessed
- Requests to cloud metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254, etc.)
