CVE-2025-14007 is a cross-site scripting vulnerability affecting dayrui XunRuiCMS up to version 4.7.1. The flaw exists in the /admin79f2ec220c7e.php endpoint, specifically within the Domain Name Binding Page component, where insufficient input sanitization allows injection of malicious scripts. This vulnerability can be triggered remotely but requires high complexity to exploit, including the need for authenticated access with high privileges and user interaction to execute the attack successfully. The vulnerability does not impact confidentiality or availability directly but can compromise integrity by enabling script injection that could lead to session hijacking or unauthorized actions within the CMS admin interface. The vendor was notified but has not issued a patch or response, and while a public exploit exists, no active exploitation in the wild has been reported. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector, high attack complexity, no privileges required (though the vector states PR:H, indicating high privileges required), and user interaction needed, with low impact on confidentiality and integrity. This suggests that while the vulnerability is real, practical exploitation is limited. Organizations running affected versions should be aware of this risk, especially if the CMS is exposed to untrusted users or if administrative credentials are compromised.

For European organizations using dayrui XunRuiCMS versions 4.7.0 or 4.7.1, this vulnerability poses a moderate risk primarily to the integrity of the CMS environment. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to execute malicious scripts in the context of the CMS admin interface, potentially leading to session hijacking, unauthorized administrative actions, or defacement. However, the requirement for high privileges and user interaction limits the likelihood of widespread impact. Organizations with publicly accessible CMS admin panels or weak access controls are at higher risk. The vulnerability does not directly affect confidentiality or availability but could be leveraged as part of a broader attack chain. Given the vendor’s lack of response and absence of patches, European entities must consider compensating controls to reduce exposure. The impact is more significant for organizations relying heavily on XunRuiCMS for critical web services or those with sensitive administrative data stored within the CMS.

1. Restrict access to the CMS admin interface by IP whitelisting or VPN-only access to reduce exposure to untrusted networks. 2. Enforce strong authentication mechanisms, including multi-factor authentication, to prevent unauthorized access with high privileges. 3. Monitor and audit administrative access logs for unusual activity that could indicate attempted exploitation. 4. Implement web application firewalls (WAF) with custom rules to detect and block XSS payloads targeting the vulnerable endpoint. 5. If possible, upgrade to a newer version of XunRuiCMS once the vendor releases a patch or consider migrating to alternative CMS platforms with active security support. 6. Educate administrators about phishing and social engineering risks to reduce the chance of user interaction enabling exploitation. 7. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration tests focusing on the CMS to identify and remediate other potential vulnerabilities. 8. Isolate the CMS environment from other critical infrastructure to limit lateral movement in case of compromise.
