Threat metrics

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: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within 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

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 18 Dec 2025
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
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
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 2026-10-25.

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.

AI-suggested

1. Immediate application of vendor patches or updates once released is critical; monitor Campcodes advisories closely. 2. Implement strict access controls and role-based access management to ensure only fully authorized personnel can access sensitive administrative functions. 3. Employ network segmentation and firewall rules to restrict access to the /admin interface to trusted IP addresses and administrative networks. 4. Conduct regular audits and monitoring of access logs for unusual activity related to voter record modifications. 5. Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all administrative accounts to reduce the risk of credential compromise. 6. If patches are not yet available, consider temporary compensating controls such as disabling the vulnerable functionality or restricting access to the affected endpoint. 7. Educate election management staff about the risks and signs of exploitation to enable rapid incident response. 8. Perform penetration testing and vulnerability assessments focused on authorization mechanisms within the voting management system.

Description

A security flaw has been discovered in Campcodes Advanced Voting Management System 1.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file /admin/voters_edit.php of the component Password Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument ID results in improper authorization. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.

Impact

The vulnerability could allow attackers with limited privileges to bypass authorization controls and manipulate voter data, potentially altering voter information or disrupting election processes. This undermines the integrity and availability of the voting management system, which could lead to inaccurate election results or denial of service to legitimate administrators. The confidentiality impact is limited but still relevant as unauthorized access to voter data may expose sensitive personal information. The public availability of exploit code increases the likelihood of exploitation, especially in politically sensitive environments. Organizations relying on this system for election management face reputational damage, legal consequences, and loss of public trust if exploited. The medium CVSS score reflects the moderate ease of exploitation combined with the critical nature of the system affected.
