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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within 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 26 Oct 2026.

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

Given the lack of an official patch, European organizations should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Restrict access to the /administer/selectionnode/selection.asp endpoint using network-level controls such as IP whitelisting or VPN access to limit exposure to trusted administrators only. 2) Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block requests with suspicious 'option' parameter values (0, 1, 2) or unusual access patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoint. 3) Conduct thorough access control reviews and enforce strict authorization checks within the CMS, ensuring that user-supplied parameters cannot bypass permission validations. 4) Monitor logs for anomalous access attempts to the selection.asp page and alert on unauthorized access patterns. 5) Engage with the vendor (Dmacroweb) to obtain or request a security patch or update that addresses the IDOR vulnerability. 6) If feasible, consider isolating or replacing the affected CMS with a more secure alternative until a fix is available. 7) Educate administrators on the risks of exposing administrative interfaces publicly and enforce strong authentication and session management practices to reduce the risk of exploitation.

Description

An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability has been found in DM Corporative CMS. This vulnerability allows an attacker to access the private area setting the option parameter equal to 0, 1 or 2 in /administer/selectionnode/selection.asp.

Impact

For European organizations using DM Corporative CMS, this vulnerability poses a moderate risk primarily related to unauthorized access to private administrative areas. The impact includes potential exposure of sensitive business data, unauthorized configuration changes, or access to user information managed within the CMS. Although the vulnerability does not directly compromise confidentiality, integrity, or availability at a high level, unauthorized access to administrative functions can facilitate lateral movement or privilege escalation attacks. Organizations in sectors with strict data protection regulations, such as finance, healthcare, or government, could face compliance issues or reputational damage if unauthorized access leads to data leaks. Additionally, since the vulnerability requires no authentication and can be exploited remotely, it increases the attack surface for threat actors targeting European entities using this CMS. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently reduces immediate risk, but the medium severity rating and ease of exploitation warrant prompt attention to prevent future attacks.

Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #24OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
Architecture and Design
For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
Architecture and Design · Implementation
Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
Architecture and Design
Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
