Describe the problem

I received a notification that the management project may be vulnerable to CVE-2025-55182, and wanted to confirm if this is the case.

NIST: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-55182
Vercel: https://vercel.com/changelog/cve-2025-55182
React Dev: https://react.dev/blog/2025/12/03/critical-security-vulnerability-in-react-server-components

To Reproduce

Not applicable

Expected behavior

A response from the author/team whether the library is vulnerable, and if so, whether a patch is being prepared.
If possible, please identify which versions of the management dashboard are vulnerable (if any).

If vulnerable versions are identified, an update to be developed which includes an update to a version where the vulnerability is patched.

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

No - self-hosted

NetBird version

Not applicable - unsure, as the management dashboard doesn't list which version it is running, and the docker-compose file doesn't list the version either.

According to next in the browser dev console reports version 14.2.32.

Is any other VPN software installed?

No

Debug output

Not applicable

Screenshots

Not applicable

Additional context

None

Have you tried these troubleshooting steps?

  • Reviewed client troubleshooting (if applicable)
  • Checked for newer NetBird versions
  • Searched for similar issues on GitHub (including closed ones)
  • Restarted the NetBird client (N/A)
  • Disabled other VPN software (N/A)
  • Checked firewall settings (N/A)

Same question here. According to package.json, next has version 14.2.28.

On react.dev the say:

If you are on Next.js 14.3.0-canary.77 or a later canary release, downgrade to the latest stable 14.x release

The last stable version in this line is 14.2.33 from what I can see.
The question is whether 14.2.28, which is not a Canary release, is vulnerable or not.

Hey guys,

Dashboard is not using React Server Components and is a client-only application. We are also currently using Next 14.2.28, which is not affected.
