CVE-2025-62198: Apache Atlas: Stored XSS in Create Entity page

An authenticated user can perform XSS. This issue affects Apache Atlas versions 2.4.0 and earlier. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.5.0, which fixes the issue.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Apache Atlas 2.4.0 and earlier allow an authenticated user to store cross-site scripting content through the Create Entity page. If another user interacts with the affected page, browser-executed script could expose or alter limited application data. This is a medium-severity issue with a vendor-named fixed release. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running Apache Atlas 2.4.0 or earlier, especially where authenticated users can access the Create Entity page. The source bundle does not identify specific deployment types, configurations, or affected downstream distributions. Treat this as a planned, near-term remediation for Apache Atlas environments, not an emergency internet-wide crisis. Prioritize faster action if Atlas stores sensitive governance metadata or has broad internal user access. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Apache Atlas to version 2.5.0.; Restrict Apache Atlas access to trusted authenticated users.; Review Create Entity permissions and remove unnecessary access..
