CVE-2025-46386

8.8 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

CVE-2025-46386 is an authorization bypass vulnerability where attackers can manipulate user-controlled keys to access unauthorized resources. This affects systems that rely on client-supplied identifiers for authorization decisions without proper validation. Organizations using vulnerable software with insufficient access control mechanisms are at risk.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Specific products not identified in provided reference
Versions: Unknown - check vendor advisory for specific versions
Operating Systems: All platforms running vulnerable software
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Vulnerability exists in software with insufficient authorization checks on user-supplied parameters. Exact affected products require vendor-specific investigation.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

🔒 Custom verification scripts are available for registered users. Sign up free to download automated test scripts.

Recommended Actions:
  1. Review the CVE details at NVD
  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system compromise allowing attackers to access, modify, or delete any data, escalate privileges, or take full control of affected systems.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to sensitive data, privilege escalation, or manipulation of user accounts and resources within the application.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, strong access controls, and monitoring in place to detect and block exploitation attempts.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Authorization bypass vulnerabilities typically require some level of access but can be exploited with basic web requests once an attacker understands the parameter structure.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://www.gov.il/en/departments/dynamiccollectors/cve_advisories_listing?skip=0

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Monitor vendor advisory for patch availability. 2. Apply vendor-provided security updates when released. 3. Test patches in non-production environment first.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Implement Server-Side Authorization

all

Replace client-supplied identifiers with server-generated session tokens and validate all authorization decisions server-side

Input Validation and Sanitization

all

Implement strict validation of all user-controlled parameters, rejecting unexpected values and formats

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement network segmentation to isolate vulnerable systems from critical assets
  • Deploy web application firewall (WAF) with rules to detect and block parameter manipulation attempts

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test if changing parameter values (IDs, tokens, keys) in requests allows access to unauthorized resources. Use automated security scanners or manual penetration testing.

Check Version:

Check with vendor-specific commands or consult vendor documentation for version identification

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that parameter manipulation no longer bypasses authorization and that all access controls are enforced server-side.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Multiple failed authorization attempts followed by successful access
  • Requests with unusual parameter values or patterns
  • Access to resources outside normal user patterns

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual parameter manipulation in HTTP requests
  • Requests attempting to access sequential or predictable resource IDs

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (parameter_tampering="true" OR (status=200 AND user_role="low" AND resource_access="high"))
