CVE-2025-66423 is an authorization bypass vulnerability classified under CWE-863, affecting the Tryton trytond server, an open-source ERP backend. The vulnerability exists because trytond versions prior to 7.6.11 do not properly enforce access control on the route serving the HTML editor component. This flaw allows authenticated users with limited privileges (PR:L) to access or potentially modify HTML editor content without proper authorization checks, leading to unauthorized data disclosure (confidentiality impact) and limited integrity compromise. The vulnerability is exploitable remotely over the network (AV:N) without requiring user interaction (UI:N), making it easier for attackers to leverage once they have low-level access. The scope is unchanged (S:U), meaning the impact is confined to the vulnerable component. The CVSS vector indicates high confidentiality impact (C:H), low integrity impact (I:L), and no availability impact (A:N). The affected versions include 6.0.0, 7.0.0, 7.1.0, and 7.5.0, with fixes released in 7.6.11, 7.4.21, 7.0.40, and 6.0.70. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, but the vulnerability's nature and ease of exploitation warrant proactive patching. The vulnerability could be leveraged by attackers to access sensitive business data or manipulate content within the ERP system's HTML editor, potentially leading to further attacks or data leakage.

For European organizations, the vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality of sensitive business data managed within Tryton ERP systems. Unauthorized access to the HTML editor route could allow attackers or malicious insiders to view or alter content that should be restricted, potentially exposing financial, operational, or personal data. This could lead to compliance violations under GDPR if personal data is involved, reputational damage, and operational disruptions if data integrity is compromised. The lack of availability impact means business operations may continue uninterrupted, but the breach of confidentiality alone can have severe consequences. Organizations in sectors such as finance, manufacturing, and public administration using Tryton are particularly at risk. The vulnerability's ease of exploitation over the network and without user interaction increases the likelihood of targeted attacks or insider misuse. Given the open-source nature of Tryton, organizations relying on community support may face delays in patch deployment if not actively monitoring updates.

European organizations should immediately verify their Tryton trytond version and upgrade to the fixed releases: 7.6.11, 7.4.21, 7.0.40, or 6.0.70 as applicable. If immediate upgrading is not feasible, implement strict network segmentation to limit access to the trytond server, especially restricting access to the HTML editor route to trusted administrators only. Conduct thorough audits of user privileges to ensure minimal necessary access is granted, and monitor logs for unusual access patterns to the HTML editor endpoint. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block unauthorized attempts to access the vulnerable route. Additionally, review and enhance internal security policies around ERP system access and train staff on the risks of privilege misuse. Regularly update and patch ERP components as part of a structured vulnerability management program. Finally, consider deploying intrusion detection systems to alert on anomalous behavior related to trytond services.
