Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-15448 is an unrestricted file upload vulnerability in cld378632668 JavaMall up to commit 994f1e2b019378ec9444cdf3fce2d5b5f72d28f0. The issue affects the Upload function within the file src/main/java/com/macro/mall/controller/MinioController.java and is associated with CWEs-284 (Improper Access Control) and CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type). The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).

An attacker with low privileges can exploit this vulnerability remotely by manipulating the Upload function, leading to unrestricted file uploads. Successful exploitation grants low-level impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially allowing attackers to upload malicious files.

Advisories from VulDB indicate that JavaMall uses a rolling release model, so no specific versions for affected or patched releases are available. The vendor was contacted early regarding disclosure but provided no response. Relevant references include VulDB entries at https://vuldb.com/?ctiid.339481, https://vuldb.com/?id.339481, and https://vuldb.com/?submit.721997, plus a GitHub document at https://github.com/zyhzheng500-maker/cve/blob/main/javamall%E4%BB%BB%E6%84%8F%E6%96%87%E4%BB%B6%E4%B8%8A%E4%BC%A0.md.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Directly enforces approved authorizations for logical access, stopping unauthorized actors from reaching resources.

Enforces flow-control policies that restrict information movement between subjects and objects.

Documents duties and assigns access so that no single account can bypass intended restrictions.

Limits each account to the minimum privileges needed, reducing the chance of unauthorized access.

Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.

Defines account types, assigns/removes access, and reviews accounts to ensure only authorized actors can reach resources.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.AA-05 mostly match
prevents

PR.AA-05 directly enforces policy-based access management and least privilege, eliminating most improper-access-control defects, yet CWE-284 also covers implementation flaws and design gaps outside a single management control.

PR.PS-01 mostly match
prevents

Hardened baselines and deviation monitoring directly eliminate most configuration-induced access-control defects, yet CWE-284 also encompasses code-level and design flaws outside the scope of configuration management alone.

PR.PS-05 mostly match
prevents

Restricting execution of unauthorized software directly blocks dangerous uploaded files from running.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices catch most access-control defects during design/coding/testing (mostly), yet leave residual risk from runtime configuration, architecture, and operational controls (partial).

PR.AA-01 partial match
prevents

PR.AA-01 supplies managed identities/credentials that support but do not implement access-control decisions, so it only partially prevents CWE-284 in either direction.

PR.AA-03 partial match
prevents

Authentication directly blocks unauthenticated actors (partial prevention of CWE-284) but leaves authorization logic, policy enforcement, and role checks untouched, so the control neither eliminates nor fully mitigates the broader weakness.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

prevents

Defining and enforcing explicit access rights and restrictions for each entity directly stops the assignment of permissions that exceed what is required, eliminating the root condition that allows improper access control.

prevents

Formal authorization, role-based provisioning, and timely revocation of access rights directly stop the creation of accounts or permissions that exceed what the business actually needs.

prevents

By enforcing explicit rules on which identities or groups may perform read, write, delete or execute operations and by denying anonymous access to sensitive data, the control directly stops the creation of overly permissive or missing access-control checks.

prevents

Requiring one-to-one mapping of identities to entities and timely removal of unused identities directly stops attackers from leveraging stale or shared accounts to bypass access restrictions.

prevents

By explicitly transferring security roles and responsibilities when personnel change jobs or leave, the control reduces the chance that former employees retain access rights they no longer need, thereby limiting improper access control.

prevents

Physical entry controls enforce explicit authorization and authentication at every access point, directly stopping unauthorized actors from reaching information-processing assets.
