CVE-2025-58643 is a high-severity vulnerability classified under CWE-502, which pertains to the deserialization of untrusted data. This vulnerability affects the enituretechnology product "LTL Freight Quotes – Daylight Edition" up to version 2.2.7. Deserialization vulnerabilities occur when an application deserializes data from untrusted sources without sufficient validation or sanitization, allowing attackers to manipulate the serialized objects. In this case, the vulnerability enables object injection, which can lead to remote code execution, privilege escalation, or other malicious activities depending on the application's context and the deserialized objects' nature. The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 indicates a high severity, with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. This means the attack can be performed remotely over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), but requires high privileges (PR:H) and no user interaction (UI:N). The scope is unchanged (S:U), and the impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is high (C:H/I:H/A:H). Although exploitation requires high privileges, the lack of user interaction and network attack vector means that an insider or compromised user could leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges or execute arbitrary code. The absence of known exploits in the wild suggests that this vulnerability is either newly disclosed or not yet weaponized, but the potential impact remains significant. The lack of available patches at the time of publication increases the urgency for affected organizations to implement mitigations and monitor for updates. Given that LTL Freight Quotes – Daylight Edition is a logistics and freight quoting software, it likely integrates with enterprise systems managing freight, shipping, and supply chain operations. Compromise of such software could lead to disruption of logistics operations, data theft, or manipulation of freight quotes and contracts.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-58643 could be substantial, especially for companies involved in logistics, freight forwarding, and supply chain management. Disruption or compromise of freight quoting software can lead to operational delays, financial losses, and reputational damage. Confidentiality breaches could expose sensitive contract details or pricing information, while integrity violations might allow attackers to alter freight quotes or shipment data, potentially causing billing fraud or contractual disputes. Availability impacts could disrupt logistics workflows, affecting delivery schedules and customer satisfaction. Given Europe's critical role in global trade and logistics, including major freight hubs and ports, exploitation of this vulnerability could have cascading effects on supply chains. Additionally, organizations subject to GDPR must consider the regulatory implications of data breaches resulting from this vulnerability, including potential fines and mandatory breach notifications.

1. Immediate mitigation should focus on restricting access to the LTL Freight Quotes – Daylight Edition application to trusted and authenticated users only, minimizing the risk of an attacker with high privileges exploiting the vulnerability. 2. Implement network segmentation and strict access controls to limit exposure of the affected software to internal networks and reduce the attack surface. 3. Monitor application logs and network traffic for unusual deserialization activity or anomalous object injection attempts. 4. Employ application-layer firewalls or runtime application self-protection (RASP) solutions that can detect and block malicious deserialization payloads. 5. Engage with the vendor (enituretechnology) to obtain patches or updates as soon as they become available and prioritize their deployment. 6. Conduct code reviews and security testing focused on deserialization processes within the application to identify and remediate unsafe deserialization patterns. 7. Educate privileged users about the risks and encourage the use of least privilege principles to reduce the potential impact of compromised accounts.
