Confidentiality: High
Integrity: High
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 6 Nov 2024
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-48325, organizations should immediately implement the following measures: 1) Apply any available patches or updates from Portabilis as soon as they are released. 2) If patches are not yet available, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting the instituicao_id parameter in the /module/Api/InstituicaoDocumentacao endpoint. 3) Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied parameters, especially instititucao_id, to ensure only expected data types and formats are accepted. 4) Restrict access to the vulnerable API endpoint to trusted networks or authenticated users where possible, reducing exposure to unauthenticated attackers. 5) Monitor logs for suspicious activity indicative of SQL injection attempts or unusual database queries. 6) Perform regular security assessments and code reviews focusing on injection vulnerabilities. 7) Educate development teams on secure coding practices to prevent similar vulnerabilities in future releases. These targeted actions go beyond generic advice by focusing on immediate protective controls and long-term secure development improvements.

Description

Portabilis i-Educar 2.8.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection in the "getDocuments" function of the "InstituicaoDocumentacaoController" class. The "instituicao_id" parameter in "/module/Api/InstituicaoDocumentacao?oper=get&resource=getDocuments&instituicao_id" is not properly sanitized, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject malicious SQL commands.

Impact

The impact of CVE-2024-48325 on organizations worldwide is substantial. Exploitation can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive educational data managed by Portabilis i-Educar, including student records, institutional documents, and other confidential information. Attackers could extract, modify, or delete data, undermining data integrity and confidentiality. This could result in data breaches, regulatory non-compliance, reputational damage, and operational disruptions for educational institutions and associated organizations. Since the vulnerability allows unauthenticated remote exploitation, attackers can launch attacks at scale without needing insider access, increasing the risk of widespread compromise. The absence of availability impact means systems remain operational but compromised, potentially allowing stealthy data exfiltration or manipulation. Organizations relying on this software for critical educational management functions are at risk of significant operational and legal consequences if exploited.

CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #2OWASP Top 10 A05:2025: Injection (opens in a new tab)
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Architecture and Design · Parameterization
If available, use structured mechanisms that automatically enforce the separation between data and code. These mechanisms may be able to provide the relevant quoting, encoding, and validation automatically, instead of relying on the developer to provide this capability at every point where output is generated.
Architecture and Design · Operation · Environment Hardening
Run your code using the lowest privileges that are required to accomplish the necessary tasks. If possible, create isolated accounts with limited privileges that are only used for a single task. That way, a successful attack will not immediately give the attacker access to the rest of the software or its environment.
