Likely Mitigating ControlsAI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Documented procedures facilitate correct implementation and ongoing management of authorization decisions.
Periodic reviews identify and correct flaws in authorization decisions or enforcement.
Specifying access authorizations for each account and requiring approvals for account requests enforces proper authorization decisions.
The control mandates authorization decisions for each access request, reducing the ability to exploit improper authorization weaknesses.
The control requires checking and applying authorization decisions per policy, preventing improper authorization.
The control requires explicit definition of separated access authorizations, making incorrect privilege assignments that bundle conflicting duties harder to implement.
Ensures privileges are assigned only as necessary rather than incorrectly over-granted.
The control's documentation requirement reduces improper authorization by ensuring only mission-justified actions bypass authentication.
MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI
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.
NVD Description
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in jshERP up to 3.5. Affected is an unknown function of the file /user/delete of the component Account Handler. The manipulation of the argument ID leads to improper authorization. It is possible…

to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
Deeper analysisAI
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.
