CVE-2025-59418 is a medium severity vulnerability affecting BunnyPad-SRC, a note-taking software developed by GSYT-Productions. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-770, which involves the allocation of resources without limits or throttling. Specifically, versions of BunnyPad-SRC prior to 11.0.27000.0915 are susceptible to a buffer overflow condition triggered when opening files of size 20MB or larger. This buffer overflow can lead to a denial of service (DoS) by exhausting system resources or causing application crashes. The vulnerability requires local access (AV:L), has low attack complexity (AC:L), does not require privileges (PR:N), but does require user interaction (UI:R) to open a maliciously crafted large file. The impact is limited to availability (A:H), with no confidentiality or integrity loss reported. The issue has been patched in version 11.0.27000.0915, and users are advised to upgrade or avoid opening files larger than 10MB to mitigate risk. No known exploits are currently in the wild. The vulnerability arises from insufficient input validation and lack of resource allocation limits when processing large files, leading to uncontrolled memory consumption and buffer overflow conditions.

For European organizations using BunnyPad-SRC, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to system availability. If exploited, an attacker could cause the application to crash or consume excessive system resources, potentially disrupting note-taking workflows and impacting productivity. While the vulnerability does not directly compromise data confidentiality or integrity, denial of service conditions could affect critical business operations, especially in environments relying heavily on BunnyPad for documentation or collaboration. Organizations with strict uptime requirements or those using BunnyPad in sensitive operational contexts may experience operational disruptions. Additionally, if attackers use this vulnerability as part of a multi-stage attack, it could serve as a vector to distract or disable users temporarily. However, the requirement for local access and user interaction limits remote exploitation, reducing the overall threat level to organizations without insider threats or compromised endpoints.

To mitigate this vulnerability, European organizations should prioritize upgrading BunnyPad-SRC to version 11.0.27000.0915 or later, where the issue is patched. For environments where immediate upgrade is not feasible, implement strict policies to prevent opening files larger than 10MB within BunnyPad. This can be enforced through user training, endpoint protection solutions, or application whitelisting that restricts file sizes. Additionally, monitor application logs for crashes or abnormal resource usage indicative of attempted exploitation. Employ endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools to detect anomalous behavior related to BunnyPad processes. Network segmentation and least privilege principles should be applied to limit local access to systems running BunnyPad, reducing the risk of exploitation by unauthorized users. Regularly review and update software inventories to ensure all instances of BunnyPad are identified and patched promptly. Finally, consider implementing file scanning solutions to detect and block large or suspicious files before they reach end users.
