CVE-2025-52758 is a critical security vulnerability identified in the Zippy product developed by Gesundheit Bewegt GmbH, affecting all versions up to and including 1.7.0. The vulnerability arises from an unrestricted file upload mechanism that does not properly restrict or validate the types of files users can upload. This allows attackers to upload malicious files, such as web shells, scripts, or executables, which can then be executed on the server or used to compromise the system. The vulnerability requires no authentication or user interaction, making it remotely exploitable over the network with low attack complexity. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.1 reflects the high impact on confidentiality and integrity, as attackers can potentially gain unauthorized access, execute arbitrary code, or manipulate sensitive data. Although no public exploits have been reported yet, the nature of the flaw makes it a prime target for attackers seeking to compromise web-facing applications. The lack of patch links indicates that a fix may not yet be publicly available, emphasizing the need for immediate risk mitigation. The vulnerability affects the core file upload functionality of Zippy, which is likely used in environments requiring file sharing or content management, increasing the attack surface. Given the vendor's German origin and probable market focus, European organizations using Zippy are particularly vulnerable.

For European organizations, exploitation of CVE-2025-52758 could lead to severe consequences including unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, data tampering, and potential full system compromise. Attackers could deploy web shells or malware, enabling lateral movement within networks, data exfiltration, or disruption of services. Organizations in sectors such as healthcare, government, and critical infrastructure that rely on Zippy for file management are at heightened risk. The breach of confidentiality and integrity could result in regulatory penalties under GDPR, reputational damage, and operational downtime. Since the vulnerability requires no authentication, attackers can exploit it remotely, increasing the likelihood of widespread attacks. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently provides a window for proactive defense, but the critical severity demands urgent attention. The impact extends beyond individual organizations to supply chains and partners connected via Zippy platforms.

European organizations should immediately audit their use of Zippy and restrict or disable file upload functionality where feasible until patches are available. Implement strict server-side validation to whitelist allowed file types and reject all others. Employ content inspection and sandboxing for uploaded files to detect malicious payloads. Use web application firewalls (WAFs) to monitor and block suspicious upload attempts. Ensure that file storage locations do not allow execution of uploaded files by configuring proper permissions and segregating upload directories. Monitor logs for unusual upload activity and conduct regular security assessments focused on file upload components. Engage with Gesundheit Bewegt GmbH for timely patch releases and apply updates as soon as they become available. Additionally, educate users and administrators about the risks of file uploads and enforce least privilege principles on affected systems.
