CVE-2025-47729 describes a critical vulnerability in the TeleMessage archiving backend, specifically affecting the text_message_archiver product. This flaw allows for the storage of cleartext copies of messages from TM SGNL (Archive Signal) app users, directly contradicting TeleMessage's "End-to-End encryption" claims. With a CVSS score of 4.9 (MEDIUM), this vulnerability has a high impact on confidentiality (C:H) and requires high privileges (PR:H) for exploitation, indicating an authenticated attacker. Despite the medium CVSS, its FAUCET Risk Score of 98/100 highlights its significant danger. Crucially, this vulnerability is actively exploited in the wild, as confirmed by its presence in the KEV catalog. While no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available, it has garnered substantial community discussion and media coverage, including warnings from CISA.
