CVE-2025-46576Network attack vector

Authenticated content deletion via privilege-bypassing requests

Published Apr 27, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2025

Improper privilege management in ZTE GoldenDB 6.1.03.09 through 6.1.03.10 and Lite7.2.01.01 allows remote authenticated users to delete content. ZTE states that crafted requests bypass privilege restrictions, but it has not disclosed the affected request handler or the missing authorization operation. Network access with low privileges is required; successful exploitation permits unauthorized content deletion without reported disclosure or code execution.
