CVE-2025-61114 identifies a critical improper access control vulnerability in the 2nd Line Android application (package com.mysecondline.app) developed by AutoBizLine, Inc. The vulnerability exists in the server-side authentication mechanism, which incorrectly validates only the first character of the user_token during authentication. This flawed validation allows an attacker to brute force user tokens by iterating over possible token values that share the same initial character, effectively bypassing proper authentication checks. As a result, attackers can perform unauthorized queries on other users' accounts, leading to potential privacy breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive user data. The affected versions include 1.2.92 and earlier, with no patch links currently available. Although no known exploits have been reported in the wild, the vulnerability's nature suggests it could be exploited with relatively low effort. The lack of a CVSS score necessitates an independent severity assessment, considering the impact on confidentiality and integrity, ease of exploitation, and scope of affected users. The vulnerability compromises user data confidentiality and integrity, as attackers can access and potentially manipulate other users' information. The attack does not require user interaction but does require knowledge of the token format and the ability to send authentication requests to the server. Given the widespread use of Android devices and the app's potential user base, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to affected users and organizations managing this data.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-61114 could be substantial, especially for those involved in telecommunications, customer support, or any service relying on the 2nd Line app for communication or user management. Unauthorized access to user accounts can lead to data breaches exposing personal and possibly sensitive information, damaging user trust and violating data protection regulations such as GDPR. The breach could result in regulatory fines, legal liabilities, and reputational damage. Additionally, organizations may face operational disruptions if attackers manipulate or delete user data. The vulnerability's ease of exploitation increases the likelihood of attacks, potentially affecting a large number of users. Organizations that integrate this app into their workflows or provide it to customers must urgently assess exposure and implement mitigations. The privacy implications are particularly critical given Europe's stringent data protection laws, making compliance and incident response more complex and costly.

To mitigate CVE-2025-61114, organizations should immediately verify if they use the affected versions of the 2nd Line Android app and coordinate with AutoBizLine, Inc. for patches or updates. In the absence of an official patch, organizations should: 1) Implement server-side fixes to validate the entire user_token rather than just the first character, ensuring robust authentication checks. 2) Introduce rate limiting and anomaly detection on authentication endpoints to prevent brute force token guessing. 3) Employ multi-factor authentication (MFA) to add an additional security layer beyond token validation. 4) Conduct thorough audits of user account access logs to detect suspicious activities. 5) Educate users about potential phishing or social engineering attacks that could leverage this vulnerability. 6) If possible, temporarily disable or restrict access to the affected app until a secure version is deployed. 7) Review and enhance overall access control policies and token management practices to prevent similar issues. These steps will reduce the risk of unauthorized access and limit potential damage.
