CVE-2025-47591 is a security vulnerability classified under CWE-862, indicating a Missing Authorization issue in the CreedAlly Bulk Featured Image product, versions up to 1.2.1. This vulnerability arises from incorrectly configured access control security levels, allowing users with limited privileges (requiring low-level privileges but no user interaction) to perform actions that should be restricted. Specifically, the flaw permits unauthorized access to certain functionalities or resources within the Bulk Featured Image component, potentially leading to disruption of service or other availability impacts. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network without user interaction, requiring only low privileges (PR:L) to exploit. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 4.3, indicating a medium severity level, with the impact limited to availability (A:L), and no direct confidentiality or integrity compromise. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet. The vulnerability's root cause is an absence or misconfiguration of proper authorization checks, which is a common security oversight that can be leveraged to bypass intended access restrictions.

For European organizations, the primary impact of this vulnerability lies in potential availability disruptions of the Bulk Featured Image functionality within CreedAlly deployments. While it does not directly compromise confidentiality or data integrity, unauthorized access to this feature could lead to denial of service or manipulation of image-related processes, potentially affecting website or application reliability and user experience. Organizations relying on CreedAlly Bulk Featured Image for content management or digital asset handling may face operational interruptions. Given the medium severity and the requirement for low privileges, insider threats or compromised low-privilege accounts could exploit this vulnerability. This risk is particularly relevant for sectors with high dependency on web content management, such as media, e-commerce, and public sector digital services in Europe. The absence of known exploits provides a window for proactive mitigation before active exploitation occurs.

European organizations using CreedAlly Bulk Featured Image should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Conduct an immediate audit of access control configurations within the Bulk Featured Image component to identify and rectify missing or improperly configured authorization checks. 2) Restrict user privileges rigorously, ensuring that only trusted users have access to features that could be exploited. 3) Monitor logs and access patterns for unusual activity related to image management functions to detect potential exploitation attempts early. 4) Engage with CreedAlly or relevant vendors to obtain patches or updates addressing this vulnerability as soon as they become available. 5) Implement network-level controls such as web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to limit access to vulnerable endpoints until patches are applied. 6) Educate administrators and users about the risks of privilege misuse and enforce strong authentication and session management practices to reduce the risk of low-privilege account compromise.
