CVE-2025-0514: Executable hyperlink Windows path targets executed unconditionally on activation

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.32% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. No account or password is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: The Document Foundation LibreOffice < 24.8.5.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to The Document Foundation LibreOffice < 24.8.5 or later.
