Overview
A notable vulnerability has been identified in the Gestionnaire Libre de Parc Informatique (GLPI), specifically in versions 10.0.0 to before 10.0.19. This vulnerability, identified as CVE-2025-53105, allows a connected user without administration rights to change the rules execution order, potentially leading to system compromise or data leakage. The severity of this vulnerability underlines the importance of its immediate resolution amongst users of the affected GLPI versions.
Vulnerability Summary

A new way to communicate
Ameeba Chat is built on encrypted identity, not personal profiles.
Message, call, share files, and coordinate with identities kept separate.
- • Encrypted identity
- • Ameeba Chat authenticates access
- • Aliases and categories
- • End-to-end encrypted chat, calls, and files
- • Secure notes for sensitive information
Private communication, rethought.

GLPI | 10.0.0 to before 10.0.19
How the Exploit Works
The exploit works by taking advantage of the weak user role management in the GLPI software. A user without administrative privileges can manipulate the order in which the rules execute. This could potentially lead to unexpected behavior of the software, data leakage, or even a full system compromise if the rules are configured to perform critical operations.
Conceptual Example Code
An example of how this vulnerability might be exploited is illustrated below. This is a conceptual example and may not represent an actual exploit.
POST /changeRuleOrder HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{
"ruleId": "1001",
"newPosition": "1"
}In this example, the attacker sends a POST request to the ‘changeRuleOrder’ endpoint, attempting to reposition a rule identified by “ruleId” to a new position in the execution order. The successful execution of this request could result in the unauthorized modification of the GLPI software’s rules execution sequence.
Recommendation
Users are strongly advised to upgrade to version 10.0.19 or later where this vulnerability has been patched. In the interim, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can be used as temporary mitigation.
