CVE-2025-41337 is a critical missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) identified in CanalDenuncia.app, a platform likely used for whistleblowing or compliance reporting. The flaw exists in the backend API endpoint '/backend/api/buscarSSOParametros.php', specifically in the handling of the POST parameter 'web'. Due to improper or absent authorization checks, an attacker can craft a POST request to this endpoint and retrieve information belonging to other users without any authentication or user interaction. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network (AV:N), requires no privileges (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and results in a high confidentiality impact (VC:H) with no impact on integrity or availability. This means attackers can exfiltrate sensitive user data, potentially including personally identifiable information or whistleblower reports, which could lead to privacy violations, regulatory breaches, and reputational damage. The vulnerability was reserved in April 2025 and published in November 2025, with no patches currently available and no known exploits in the wild. The absence of patches necessitates immediate risk mitigation by affected organizations. The vulnerability's presence in a compliance-related application increases the stakes, as unauthorized data disclosure could undermine trust in whistleblowing mechanisms and expose organizations to legal liabilities.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-41337 is significant due to the potential exposure of sensitive whistleblowing or compliance data. Unauthorized access to user information can lead to breaches of GDPR and other data protection regulations, resulting in heavy fines and legal consequences. The confidentiality breach could undermine employee trust and deter whistleblowers from reporting misconduct, weakening organizational governance and compliance efforts. Additionally, exposure of sensitive data could be exploited for targeted phishing, social engineering, or insider threats. Organizations relying on CanalDenuncia.app for regulatory reporting or internal investigations may face operational disruptions and reputational harm. The vulnerability's remote and unauthenticated exploitability increases the risk of widespread attacks, especially if threat actors develop automated exploitation tools. Without patches, the risk remains until mitigations are applied, making proactive defense critical.

1. Immediately restrict network access to the '/backend/api/buscarSSOParametros.php' endpoint using firewall rules or API gateways to limit exposure to trusted IPs or internal networks only. 2. Implement strict authorization checks on the server side to verify that the requesting user is permitted to access the requested data, ensuring that the 'web' parameter cannot be used to retrieve other users' information. 3. Conduct thorough code reviews and security testing of the CanalDenuncia.app backend to identify and remediate similar authorization flaws. 4. Monitor logs for unusual POST requests targeting the vulnerable endpoint, especially those that attempt to access data of multiple or unexpected users. 5. If possible, deploy Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests exploiting this parameter. 6. Engage with the vendor or maintainers of CanalDenuncia.app to obtain patches or updates as soon as they become available. 7. Educate internal security teams and users about the risks and signs of exploitation to improve detection and response. 8. Consider isolating or segmenting the application environment to reduce the blast radius in case of compromise.
