Summary
In Unopim, it is possible to create roles and choose the privileges. However, users without the “Delete” privilege for Products cannot delete a single product via the standard endpoint (expected behavior), but can still delete products via the mass-delete endpoint, even when the request contains only one product ID.
Severity: High CVSS Score 8.1 (CVSS 3.1 Vector: AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H)
Category: Broken Access Control / Missing Authorization (OWASP A01:2021)
Impact: Unauthorized product deletion -> data loss, possible business disruption
Affected Behavior
Single delete (enforced):
DELETE /admin/catalog/products/{id} returns 401 with "This action is unauthorized" for users lacking the Delete privilege.
Mass delete (not enforced):
POST /admin/catalog/products/mass-delete allows deletion without the Delete privilege. This occurs for both multiple IDs and a single ID submitted to the bulk endpoint.
PoC
A video was captured in Burp Suite for a proof of concept. The cookies were used directly from Burp Suite and rendered the My Account page to prove what cookies belong to what users. The video PoC is listed in references.
Impact
Unauthorized product deletion -> data loss, possible business disruption
The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation. Typical impact: unauthorized access to restricted functionality or data.
CVE-2025-55741 has a CVSS score of 8.1 (High). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (0.3.1); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2025-55741? CVE-2025-55741 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in unopim/unopim (composer), affecting versions <= 0.3.0. It is fixed in 0.3.1. The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation.
- How severe is CVE-2025-55741? CVE-2025-55741 has a CVSS score of 8.1 (High). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
- Which versions of unopim/unopim are affected by CVE-2025-55741? unopim/unopim (composer) versions <= 0.3.0 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2025-55741? Yes. CVE-2025-55741 is fixed in 0.3.1. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2025-55741 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2025-55741 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2025-55741 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
- How do I fix CVE-2025-55741? Upgrade
unopim/unopimto 0.3.1 or later.
