CVE-2025-32800

CWE-1357Published: June 16, 2025· Updated: Jun 17, 2026

9.8
CVSS v3.1

Official Description

Conda-build contains commands and tools to build conda packages. Prior to version 25.3.0, the pyproject.toml lists conda-index as a Python dependency. This package is not published in PyPI. An attacker could claim this namespace and upload arbitrary (malicious) code to the package, and then exploit pip install commands by injecting the malicious dependency in the solve. This issue has been fixed in version 25.3.0. A workaround involves using --no-deps for pip install-ing the project from the repository.

Risk Analysis

Conda-build versions prior to 25.3.0 are vulnerable to a dependency confusion attack because a required package is not published on PyPI. An attacker could claim the namespace to inject malicious code, leading to a critical 9.8 CVSS score.

No public exploit is known, and it is not in the KEV catalog. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable.

Recommended Action

Upgrade to conda-build version 25.3.0 or use the --no-deps flag when running pip install.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-32800 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.

The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
