CVE-2025-64248 identifies a missing authorization vulnerability in the 'Request a Quote' plugin developed by emarket-design, affecting all versions up to and including 2.5.3. The core issue stems from incorrectly configured access control security levels, which allow unauthorized users to exploit the request-a-quote functionality without proper permission checks. This means that attackers can potentially submit quote requests, alter existing requests, or perform other unauthorized actions that should be restricted to authenticated or privileged users. The vulnerability does not require user interaction beyond sending crafted requests, and no authentication is needed to exploit the flaw, increasing the risk profile. Although no known exploits have been reported in the wild as of now, the vulnerability is publicly disclosed and could be targeted by attackers once exploit code becomes available. The plugin is typically used in e-commerce environments to facilitate customer inquiries and quotations, making the confidentiality and integrity of the data processed critical. The absence of a CVSS score complicates severity assessment, but the nature of the vulnerability suggests a significant risk to affected organizations. The vulnerability was reserved in late October 2025 and published in mid-December 2025, indicating recent discovery and disclosure. No official patches or mitigation links are currently provided, emphasizing the need for immediate attention from users of the affected plugin versions.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-64248 can be substantial, particularly for those relying on the emarket-design 'Request a Quote' plugin as part of their e-commerce or customer engagement platforms. Unauthorized access to the quote request functionality can lead to data leakage, manipulation of customer requests, and potential fraud or reputational damage. Attackers could submit fraudulent quote requests or alter legitimate ones, disrupting business operations and customer trust. The confidentiality of customer data and business pricing information is at risk, as is the integrity of transactional workflows. This could also facilitate further attacks if attackers leverage this vulnerability as an initial foothold. Given the plugin’s role in commercial transactions, the availability of services could be indirectly affected through operational disruptions or increased support overhead. The absence of authentication requirements for exploitation increases the threat level, making it easier for attackers to target organizations remotely without prior access. European companies in sectors such as retail, manufacturing, and services that use this plugin are particularly vulnerable. The lack of known exploits currently provides a window for proactive mitigation before widespread exploitation occurs.

1. Immediately audit all instances of the emarket-design 'Request a Quote' plugin to identify affected versions (<= 2.5.3). 2. Monitor official vendor channels and security advisories for the release of patches or updates addressing CVE-2025-64248 and apply them promptly upon availability. 3. In the absence of patches, implement strict network-level access controls to restrict access to the quote request functionality to trusted users or IP ranges. 4. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block unauthorized request patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoints. 5. Conduct thorough access control reviews and tighten permissions related to the plugin’s operations within the content management or e-commerce platform. 6. Enable detailed logging and monitoring of quote request activities to detect anomalies or unauthorized usage attempts. 7. Educate relevant personnel about the vulnerability and the importance of reporting suspicious activities related to the plugin. 8. Consider temporary disabling or replacing the plugin if mitigation options are limited and risk exposure is high. 9. Review and enhance overall application security posture, including regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing focused on access control mechanisms.
