CVE-2023-47325: Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 administrative "Bin" feature is affected by broken access control.
Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 administrative "Bin" feature is affected by broken access control. A user with low privileges is able to navigate directly to the bin, revealing all deleted spaces. The user can then restore or permanently delete the spaces.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 lets a low-privileged authenticated user directly access the administrative Bin. That can expose deleted spaces and allow restore or permanent deletion, creating confidentiality and integrity risk for collaboration content.
Executive priority
Treat as a moderate priority for Silverpeas environments with many internal users or sensitive collaboration spaces. Prioritize validation and vendor remediation, especially where deleted content may contain regulated or confidential information.
Technical view
The issue is broken access control in the administrative Bin feature. With network access and a low-privileged account, an attacker can bypass intended authorization and view, restore, or permanently delete deleted spaces. CVSS 3.1 is 5.4, with low attack complexity and no user interaction.
Likely exposure
Exposure appears limited to organizations running Silverpeas Core 6.3.1 with untrusted or broadly provisioned authenticated users. The CVE metadata does not provide complete affected CPEs or version ranges.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or active exploitation evidence. Public details indicate authenticated misuse rather than unauthenticated compromise. Impact is mainly unauthorized access to deleted spaces and unauthorized restore or deletion actions.
Researcher notes
Public evidence is sparse. The CVE describes the affected feature and behavior, but affected product metadata is incomplete and no patch details are included in the provided sources. Avoid assuming broader version impact without vendor confirmation.
Mitigation direction
Check Silverpeas vendor guidance for fixed versions or configuration mitigations.
Restrict Silverpeas accounts to trusted users until access control is confirmed.
Limit administrative Bin access to authorized administrative roles only.
Review logs for unusual Bin access, restore, or permanent deletion events.
Validation and detection
Inventory Silverpeas deployments and confirm whether Core 6.3.1 is present.
Review role mappings for administrative Bin permissions.
Test authorization boundaries in a controlled environment using non-administrative accounts.
Confirm deleted spaces cannot be viewed, restored, or deleted by low-privileged users.

CWE-284: Authorization and privilege behavior lookup
Authorization weaknesses can support privilege escalation and valid-account review, depending on exploit path. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Improper Access Control
Improper Access Control represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
