What is CVE-2025-62614?

The BookLore web application suffers from an authentication bypass vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated users to access sensitive book content. In versions 1.8.1 and earlier, missing access control annotations in the BookMediaController permit unauthorized users to download book covers and complete PDF/CBX content, while the CoverJwtFilter fails to halt processing without valid authentication tokens. This critical flaw enables attackers to enumerate and exfiltrate all book content, undermining the intended security settings. Patch details are available in the latest commit.
