CVE-2025-67793 is a critical security vulnerability discovered in multiple versions of DriveLock, a security and endpoint management solution. The flaw exists in the API handling of role and permission management, where users granted the 'Manage roles and permissions' privilege—which is included by default in the Administrator role—can escalate their privileges by promoting themselves or other DOC users to the Supervisor role. The Supervisor role likely has elevated permissions that allow full control over the system, including sensitive configurations and data. This vulnerability is particularly impactful in cloud multi-tenant deployments where multiple customers share the same infrastructure, as it allows an attacker with limited administrative privileges to gain higher-level access across the environment. On-premises single-tenant deployments are less affected because local administrators typically already have Supervisor privileges, reducing the impact of this escalation. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-269 (Improper Privilege Management), indicating a failure to properly restrict privilege elevation. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8, with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, meaning it is remotely exploitable over the network without authentication or user interaction, and it impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability at a high level. No patches or exploit code are currently publicly available, but the severity demands urgent attention. Organizations using DriveLock cloud services should review their role assignments and apply updates as soon as they become available to mitigate this risk.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-67793 is substantial, especially for those utilizing DriveLock in cloud multi-tenant environments. Successful exploitation allows attackers to gain Supervisor-level privileges, potentially leading to full administrative control over endpoint security configurations, access to sensitive data, and the ability to disrupt security policies or availability of services. This could result in data breaches, compliance violations (e.g., GDPR), and operational disruptions. The ease of exploitation without authentication or user interaction increases the risk of automated or targeted attacks. Organizations in sectors with stringent security requirements, such as finance, healthcare, and critical infrastructure, face heightened risks. Furthermore, multi-tenant cloud environments used by managed service providers or large enterprises increase the attack surface and potential for lateral movement across tenants. The vulnerability could also undermine trust in cloud security solutions, impacting business continuity and reputation.

To mitigate CVE-2025-67793, European organizations should immediately audit user roles and permissions within DriveLock, particularly focusing on users with the 'Manage roles and permissions' privilege. Restrict this privilege to the minimum number of trusted administrators and monitor for any unusual role changes or promotions. Implement strict API access controls and logging to detect unauthorized privilege escalations. Where possible, isolate critical workloads and sensitive data to reduce the blast radius of a compromised account. Organizations should apply vendor patches or updates as soon as they are released; if patches are not yet available, consider temporary compensating controls such as disabling API access for role management or enforcing multi-factor authentication for administrative actions. Regularly review and update security policies to enforce least privilege principles. Additionally, conduct security awareness training for administrators to recognize and report suspicious activities. Engage with DriveLock support to obtain guidance on interim fixes or workarounds. Finally, integrate this vulnerability into incident response plans to ensure rapid containment if exploitation is detected.
