Authenticated user can bypass authorization in Ribblr - Crochet & Knitting iOS application
AnalysisAI
Authorization bypass in Ribblr Crochet & Knitting iOS version 2.5 allows authenticated users to access resources belonging to other users by manipulating user-controlled object identifiers, a class of flaw defined by CWE-639 (IDOR). The vulnerability is network-exploitable with low privilege and no user interaction required, but is constrained to confidentiality impact only - no integrity or availability exposure. No active exploitation has been confirmed (CISA KEV absent), and the EPSS score of 0.04% at the 11th percentile reflects minimal real-world exploitation probability at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key) describes the Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability class, where an application exposes internal object identifiers - such as user IDs, pattern IDs, or resource tokens - in API calls without verifying that the requesting authenticated user is actually authorized to access the referenced object. In a mobile application context, this is commonly exploited by intercepting API traffic via a proxy (e.g., Burp Suite or mitmproxy) and substituting another user's identifier in place of one's own. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:ribblr:crotchet_and_knitting:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies the Ribblr application as the affected product, and the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N) confirms the flaw is network-exploitable at low attack complexity by authenticated users, with limited confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability exposure.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch or fixed version has been independently confirmed at time of analysis. The sole reference in available intelligence is the Ribblr vendor homepage (https://ribblr.com/), with no linked security advisory or changelog entry identifying a remediated release. Users should monitor the Ribblr listing in the Apple App Store for application updates and check the vendor website for any published security notices addressing CVE-2025-15626. As a compensating control, users who are concerned about unauthorized access to their account data should limit the sensitivity of information stored in their Ribblr profile and pattern library until a fix is confirmed. Organizations managing iOS devices via MDM should evaluate whether Ribblr is deployed in environments where cross-user data exposure would violate applicable data protection requirements.
