CVE-2025-24015 SUSE CVE security@suse.de SUSE Security Team SUSE CVE-2025-24015 Interim 1 3 2025-07-12T06:45:38Z current 2025-06-04T23:14:20Z 2025-07-12T06:45:38Z cve-database/bin/generate-cvrf-cve.pl 2020-12-27T01:00:00Z CVE-2025-24015 Deno is a JavaScript, TypeScript, and WebAssembly runtime. Versions 1.46.0 through 2.1.6 have an issue that affects AES-256-GCM and AES-128-GCM in Deno in which the authentication tag is not being validated. This means tampered ciphertexts or incorrect keys might not be detected, which breaks the guarantees expected from AES-GCM. Older versions of Deno correctly threw errors in such cases, as does Node.js. Without authentication tag verification, AES-GCM degrades to essentially CTR mode, removing integrity protection. Authenticated data set with set_aad is also affected, as it is incorporated into the GCM hash (ghash) but this too is not validated, rendering AAD checks ineffective. Version 2.1.7 includes a patch that addresses this issue.
