CVE-2025-30177: Apache Camel: Camel-Undertow Message Header Injection via Improper Filtering
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)
- 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: 1.2% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 70.4% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Camel 4.10.3, 4.8.6.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache Camel 4.10.3, 4.8.6 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Bypass/Injection vulnerability in Apache Camel in Camel-Undertow component under particular conditions. This issue affects Apache Camel: from 4.10.0 before 4.10.3, from 4.8.0 before 4.8.6. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.10.3 for 4.10.x LTS and 4.8.6 for 4.8.x LTS. Camel undertow component is vulnerable to Camel message header injection, in particular the custom header filter strategy used by the component only filter the "out" direction, while it doesn't filter the "in" direction. This allows an attacker to include Camel specific headers that for some Camel components can alter the behaviour such as the camel-bean component, or the camel-exec component.
