CVE-2025-48155 is a medium-severity vulnerability classified under CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) affecting the enituretechnology product Residential Address Detection, up to version 2.5.9. The vulnerability arises due to insufficient access control mechanisms, allowing unauthorized users to access functionality that should be restricted by Access Control Lists (ACLs). Specifically, this means that certain functions within the Residential Address Detection software can be invoked without proper authorization checks, potentially enabling attackers to perform actions or retrieve information they should not have access to. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.3, reflecting a network attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction needed (UI:N), unchanged scope (S:U), no impact on confidentiality (C:N), limited impact on integrity (I:L), and no impact on availability (A:N). This indicates that an attacker can exploit the vulnerability remotely without authentication or user interaction, but the impact is limited to integrity, such as unauthorized modification or manipulation of data or functionality within the affected system. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet. The vulnerability was published on July 16, 2025, with the issue reserved in May 2025, suggesting it is a recent discovery. The affected product, Residential Address Detection, is likely used in environments requiring address verification or geolocation services, possibly integrated into logistics, e-commerce, or residential services platforms.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-48155 depends on the extent to which they rely on enituretechnology's Residential Address Detection software. Unauthorized access to restricted functionality could lead to data integrity issues, such as manipulation of address verification results or alteration of detection parameters. This could disrupt business processes relying on accurate residential address data, including shipping, billing, fraud prevention, and customer verification workflows. While confidentiality and availability are not directly impacted, integrity compromises can lead to operational inefficiencies, financial losses, and reputational damage. In sectors like e-commerce, logistics, or real estate services prevalent in Europe, inaccurate address detection could cause shipment errors, compliance issues with data regulations, or customer dissatisfaction. The vulnerability's ease of exploitation without authentication increases risk, especially for organizations exposing this functionality over public networks. However, the lack of known exploits and the medium severity score suggest that immediate widespread impact may be limited but should not be ignored.

Given the absence of a published patch, European organizations should implement compensating controls to mitigate risk. These include: 1) Restricting network access to the Residential Address Detection service by implementing firewall rules or network segmentation to limit exposure to trusted internal users or systems only. 2) Employing application-layer access controls or reverse proxies that enforce authorization checks externally until an official patch is available. 3) Monitoring and logging all access to the affected functionality to detect unauthorized attempts promptly. 4) Conducting thorough audits of user permissions and roles to ensure least privilege principles are enforced. 5) Engaging with enituretechnology for timelines on patch releases and applying updates immediately upon availability. 6) If feasible, temporarily disabling or isolating the vulnerable functionality if it is not critical to business operations. 7) Educating relevant IT and security teams about the vulnerability and signs of exploitation attempts to enhance detection capabilities.
