## Affected packages

- `org.geoserver:gs-wfs` (Maven): affected `>=1.0.0, <2.24.4 || >=2.25.0, <2.25.2`; fixed in `2.24.4`, `2.25.2`

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> GeoServer gs-wfs versions from 1.0.0 before 2.24.4, and from 2.25.0 before 2.25.2, are affected. An unauthenticated attacker can make the server send requests to specific targets through the TestWfsPost endpoint, a server-side request forgery. Upgrade to 2.24.4 or 2.25.2, where the TestWfsPost page has been replaced.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-68cf-j696-wvv9>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
