Attack Vector: Network
Attack Complexity: Low

Vulnerable system availability: Low
Subsequent system confidentiality: None
Subsequent system integrity: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the Vulnerable System are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Organizations should immediately audit and restrict access controls to the delete functionality within JavaMall, ensuring only fully trusted users have permission. Implement input validation and sanitization on the objectName parameter to prevent directory traversal sequences such as '../'. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block path traversal attempts targeting this endpoint. Monitor logs for suspicious delete requests or unusual file system activity. If possible, isolate JavaMall instances in segmented network zones to limit lateral movement. Maintain regular backups of critical files and configurations to enable recovery if deletion occurs. Engage with the vendor or community for updates or patches, and consider temporarily disabling or restricting the vulnerable delete function until a fix is available. Conduct penetration testing focused on path traversal vectors to identify similar weaknesses. Finally, implement strong authentication and session management to reduce the risk of exploitation by unauthorized users.

Description

A vulnerability was determined in cld378632668 JavaMall up to 994f1e2b019378ec9444cdf3fce2d5b5f72d28f0. Affected is the function delete of the file src/main/java/com/macro/mall/controller/MinioController.java. This manipulation of the argument objectName causes path traversal. The attack can be initiated remotely. Continious delivery with rolling releases is used by this product. Therefore, no version details of affected nor updated releases are available. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2025-15449 is on the integrity and availability of systems running JavaMall. An attacker with limited privileges can remotely exploit the path traversal flaw to delete arbitrary files, potentially including configuration files, logs, or application data. This can lead to denial of service, application malfunction, or data loss. Organizations relying on JavaMall for e-commerce or other critical functions may experience service disruptions or require recovery efforts. Although confidentiality impact is low, the integrity and availability consequences can affect business operations and customer trust. The lack of vendor response and patch increases the risk window. Since exploitation requires limited privileges but no user interaction, insider threats or compromised accounts could leverage this vulnerability effectively. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently limits immediate widespread impact but does not preclude future exploitation.

Summary

CVE-2025-15449 is a path traversal vulnerability identified in the JavaMall product developed by cld378632668. The flaw exists in the delete function within the MinioController.java source file, where the objectName parameter is improperly sanitized or validated. This allows an attacker to craft a malicious request that manipulates the objectName argument to traverse directories outside the intended scope, potentially deleting arbitrary files on the server. The vulnerability can be triggered remotely without user interaction and requires only limited privileges, indicating that an authenticated user with some access can exploit it. The product employs continuous delivery with rolling releases, which complicates the identification of specific affected or patched versions. The vendor was contacted but has not responded or provided a patch. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.3 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no user interaction, and limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No known exploits have been reported in the wild to date. This vulnerability could allow attackers to disrupt service or corrupt data by deleting critical files, impacting system integrity and availability.
