CVE-2025-10073 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting Portabilis i-Educar versions 2.0 through 2.10. The vulnerability arises from improper authorization controls in an unspecified function within the /module/Api/turma file. This flaw allows an attacker to remotely manipulate the system without requiring user interaction or elevated privileges beyond low-level privileges (PR:L). The vulnerability does not require authentication (AT:N) and can be exploited over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L). The impact primarily affects the confidentiality of the system (VC:L), with no direct impact on integrity or availability. The vulnerability is publicly disclosed, and while no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, the presence of public exploit code increases the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability affects an educational management system, which is typically used by schools and educational institutions to manage student data, classes, and administrative functions. Improper authorization could allow unauthorized access to sensitive student or institutional data or unauthorized actions within the system, potentially leading to data leakage or unauthorized data manipulation. Given the nature of the product and the vulnerability, attackers could leverage this flaw to gain access to restricted educational data or perform unauthorized operations remotely, posing a risk to the privacy and security of educational institutions using i-Educar.

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using Portabilis i-Educar, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive student and administrative data. This may result in breaches of data protection regulations such as GDPR, leading to legal and financial repercussions. The exposure of personal data could damage the reputation of affected institutions and erode trust among students, parents, and staff. Additionally, unauthorized manipulation of educational records or administrative functions could disrupt educational operations. Since the vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction or elevated privileges, it increases the risk of widespread exploitation if the software is internet-facing or insufficiently protected within internal networks. The medium severity score reflects a moderate risk, but the context of educational data sensitivity and regulatory compliance in Europe elevates the importance of timely mitigation.

1. Immediate application of patches or updates from Portabilis once available is critical. Although no patch links are currently provided, organizations should monitor vendor communications closely. 2. Implement network-level access controls to restrict access to the i-Educar application, limiting exposure to trusted IP ranges or VPN-only access. 3. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests targeting the /module/Api/turma endpoint. 4. Conduct thorough access reviews and audit logs to detect any unauthorized access attempts or anomalous activities related to the vulnerable module. 5. Educate IT staff and administrators about the vulnerability and the importance of monitoring for exploitation attempts. 6. Consider deploying intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS) tuned to detect exploitation patterns for this CVE. 7. If possible, isolate the i-Educar system from other critical infrastructure to contain potential breaches. 8. Review and strengthen authorization policies within the application configuration to minimize the impact of improper authorization flaws.
