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: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: High: There is a total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all information within the Vulnerable System being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact. For example, an attacker steals the administrator's password, or private encryption keys of a web server.
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.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 2 Mar 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

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 30 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.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity 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.

What to do

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-58402, organizations should implement the following specific measures: 1) Immediately audit and restrict access to the CGM CLININET application to trusted networks and users only, minimizing exposure. 2) Implement strict authorization checks on all object identifiers, ensuring that users can only access messages and attachments they are explicitly authorized to view. This may involve redesigning the application logic to avoid direct use of sequential IDs or employing indirect references (e.g., UUIDs or opaque tokens). 3) Monitor and analyze application logs for unusual access patterns, such as sequential MessageID requests or access attempts to other users' data. 4) If patches become available from CGM, apply them promptly. 5) Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block suspicious parameter tampering attempts targeting MessageID parameters. 6) Educate staff about the risks of data exposure and enforce strong authentication and session management practices to limit unauthorized access. 7) Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on authorization controls to detect similar flaws. These targeted actions go beyond generic advice by focusing on the specific vulnerability mechanism and the healthcare context.

Description

The CGM CLININET application uses direct, sequential object identifiers "MessageID" without proper authorization checks. By modifying the parameter in the GET request, an attacker can access messages and attachments belonging to other users.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2025-58402 is the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive healthcare messages and attachments, severely compromising patient confidentiality and privacy. This can lead to violations of data protection regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA, resulting in legal and financial repercussions for affected organizations. The exposure of medical information can also damage patient trust and the reputation of healthcare providers. Since the vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction and with minimal privileges, attackers can automate data harvesting attacks at scale. This increases the risk of large-scale data breaches affecting multiple patients. Additionally, the unauthorized access could be leveraged for further attacks such as social engineering or identity theft. The lack of known exploits in the wild currently reduces immediate risk, but the vulnerability's straightforward exploitation method means it could be weaponized quickly once discovered by malicious actors. Organizations worldwide using CGM CLININET in clinical environments face significant risks to data confidentiality and regulatory compliance.

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.
