Focus on akka vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Jul 2025, 22:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with akka. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total akka CVEs: 5
Earliest CVE date: 17 Jul 2017, 13:18 UTC
Latest CVE date: 03 Jun 2025, 15:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2025-46548
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): -100.0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0.0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): -100.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 3.86
Max CVSS: 9.3
Critical CVEs (≥9): 1
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 2 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 2 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 0 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 1 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for akka, sorted by severity first and recency.
If you enable Basic Authentication in Pekko Management using the Java DSL, the authenticator may not be properly applied. Users that rely on authentication instead of making sure the Management API ports are only available to trusted users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.1.1, which fixes this issue. Akka was affected by the same issue and has released the fix in version 1.6.1.
The HTTP/2 protocol allows a denial of service (server resource consumption) because request cancellation can reset many streams quickly, as exploited in the wild in August through October 2023.
Akka HTTP 10.1.x before 10.1.15 and 10.2.x before 10.2.7 can encounter stack exhaustion while parsing HTTP headers, which allows a remote attacker to conduct a Denial of Service attack by sending a User-Agent header with deeply nested comments.
Akka HTTP versions <= 10.0.5 Illegal Media Range in Accept Header Causes StackOverflowError Leading to Denial of Service
Akka versions <=2.4.16 and 2.5-M1 are vulnerable to a java deserialization attack in its Remoting component resulting in remote code execution in the context of the ActorSystem.
