Exploit Maturity: POC

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

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, 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: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the Vulnerable System are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

Exploitation evidence

Detectable: no evidence on record.

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 2026-10-26.

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 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

1. Immediately inventory and identify all deployments of the ProjectsAndPrograms School Management System within the organization to assess exposure. 2. Restrict network access to the affected system components by implementing network segmentation and firewall rules to limit exposure to trusted internal networks only. 3. Monitor network traffic and system logs for unusual or unauthorized access attempts targeting the vulnerable components. 4. Engage with the vendor or community maintaining the software to obtain patches or updates addressing the missing authentication vulnerability as soon as they are released. 5. If patches are not yet available, consider temporary mitigations such as disabling or restricting access to the vulnerable functionality or applying web application firewalls (WAF) with custom rules to block exploit attempts. 6. Educate IT and security teams about the vulnerability and ensure incident response plans include procedures for detecting and responding to exploitation attempts. 7. Regularly update and audit authentication and access control configurations to prevent similar issues in the future. 8. Consider deploying intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS) tuned to detect exploitation attempts of this CVE. 9. Coordinate with national cybersecurity centers or education sector CERTs for threat intelligence sharing and guidance.

Description

A vulnerability was found in ProjectsAndPrograms School Management System up to 6b6fae5426044f89c08d0dd101c7fa71f9042a59. This affects an unknown part. Performing manipulation results in missing authentication. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. This product adopts a rolling release strategy to maintain continuous delivery

Impact

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using the ProjectsAndPrograms School Management System, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive student and staff data, including personal information and academic records. The missing authentication allows attackers to bypass security controls, potentially resulting in data tampering, leakage, or denial of service conditions. Such incidents could undermine trust in educational services, cause regulatory compliance issues under GDPR, and disrupt critical administrative functions. The medium severity rating reflects a moderate risk, but the public availability of exploits elevates the urgency for mitigation. The impact extends beyond confidentiality to include integrity and availability concerns, which could affect the operational continuity of schools and educational authorities. Additionally, reputational damage and potential legal consequences could arise from exploitation. European organizations with limited cybersecurity resources or delayed patch management processes are particularly vulnerable to exploitation attempts.

Summary

CVE-2025-11661 is a vulnerability identified in the ProjectsAndPrograms School Management System, specifically affecting versions up to commit 6b6fae5426044f89c08d0dd101c7fa71f9042a59. The core issue is missing authentication controls in an unspecified component of the system, allowing remote attackers to perform unauthorized manipulations without any authentication, privileges, or user interaction. This means an attacker can remotely access and potentially alter sensitive data or system configurations without needing valid credentials. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9, indicating a medium severity level, with attack vector being network-based and no authentication or user interaction required. The impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is rated low to medium, suggesting limited but meaningful damage potential. The product follows a rolling release model, which can facilitate rapid updates but also means that unpatched versions may be widely in use at any given time. Although no known exploits in the wild have been reported, the public disclosure of exploit code increases the risk of active exploitation. The vulnerability poses a significant risk to educational institutions relying on this system, as unauthorized access could lead to data breaches, manipulation of student records, or disruption of school operations.
