CVE-2025-7947
Published: 22 July 2025
Summary
CVE-2025-7947 is a low-severity Incorrect Privilege Assignment (CWE-266) vulnerability in Jishenghua Jsherp. Its CVSS base score is 2.1 (Low).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked in the top 38.1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-24 (Access Control Decisions).
Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-7947 is a critical improper authorization vulnerability in jshERP versions up to 3.5, affecting an unknown function within the /user/delete endpoint of the Account Handler component. The issue arises from manipulation of the ID argument, allowing unauthorized actions on user accounts. It has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L) and is linked to CWEs 266 (Incorrect Privilege Assignment), 285 (Improper Authorization), and 639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key). The vulnerability is remotely exploitable, with a proof-of-concept exploit publicly disclosed.
An attacker with low privileges, such as a standard authenticated user, can exploit this over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation enables limited integrity and availability impacts, potentially allowing unauthorized modifications or deletions of account data via the manipulated ID parameter, while confidentiality remains unaffected due to the unchanged scope.
Advisories and further details are available in referenced sources, including GitHub issue #124 in the jshERP repository (https://github.com/jishenghua/jshERP/issues/124) and VulDB entries (https://vuldb.com/?ctiid.317088, https://vuldb.com/?id.317088, https://vuldb.com/?submit.619276), which document the vulnerability disclosure and may include mitigation guidance or patch information.

Why these techniques?
The IDOR vulnerability (CWE-285) in the /user/delete endpoint enables low-privileged authenticated users to exploit improper authorization for privilege escalation (T1068) by performing admin-level account deletions and facilitates account access removal (T1531) by allowing arbitrary account deletion via ID manipulation.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly enforces authorization checks on the /user/delete endpoint so that manipulation of the ID parameter cannot bypass intended account access restrictions.
Limits privileges of authenticated users so a low-privilege account cannot reach or affect other users' records via the vulnerable ID parameter.
Requires explicit access-control decisions to be made and enforced for each user ID supplied to the Account Handler, blocking the authorization bypass.
