Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-10291 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linlinjava's litemall e-commerce platform versions 1.0 through 1.8.0. The flaw exists in the WxAftersaleController component, specifically in the /wx/aftersale/cancel endpoint. This endpoint processes requests related to after-sale order cancellations. The vulnerability arises from improper authorization checks when handling the argument 'ID' that identifies the after-sale request to be canceled. An attacker can manipulate this ID parameter remotely without authentication or user interaction, exploiting the lack of proper access control to cancel or interfere with after-sale requests belonging to other users. This could lead to unauthorized cancellation of after-sale orders, potentially disrupting customer service operations and causing financial or reputational damage. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.3, indicating medium severity, with characteristics including network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Although an exploit has been publicly disclosed, no known exploits are currently observed in the wild. The vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts, and no official patches have been released, increasing the risk for organizations relying on affected versions of litemall.

Potential Impact

For European organizations using linlinjava litemall, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the integrity and availability of after-sale service processes. Unauthorized cancellation of after-sale orders can lead to customer dissatisfaction, loss of trust, and potential financial losses due to improper handling of returns, refunds, or warranty claims. Retailers and e-commerce businesses operating in Europe that depend on litemall for their online storefronts or order management are particularly vulnerable. The vulnerability could be exploited to disrupt business operations, damage brand reputation, and potentially facilitate fraud or chargeback abuse. While the confidentiality impact is limited, the integrity and availability impacts on customer service workflows are significant. Given the remote and unauthenticated nature of the exploit, attackers can target European e-commerce platforms at scale, especially those without compensating controls. The lack of vendor response and patches further exacerbates the risk, necessitating immediate mitigation efforts by affected organizations.

Mitigation Recommendations

Since no official patches are available, European organizations should implement compensating controls to mitigate this vulnerability. First, restrict access to the /wx/aftersale/cancel endpoint by implementing network-level controls such as IP whitelisting or VPN access to trusted users only. Second, deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious manipulation of the ID parameter or abnormal cancellation request patterns. Third, enhance application-level authorization by adding strict server-side validation to verify that the requesting user owns the after-sale request before processing cancellation. If possible, upgrade to a version of litemall that addresses this issue once released. Additionally, monitor logs for unusual cancellation activities and implement alerting for potential exploitation attempts. Conduct security audits and penetration tests focusing on after-sale workflows to identify any other authorization weaknesses. Finally, educate customer service teams to verify cancellations through secondary channels to detect and prevent fraudulent cancellations.
