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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
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: 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 impacted component 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 impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

CVE published 10 Jan 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed

No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: 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 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

Upgrade LabRedesCefetRJ WeGIA to 3.2.8.

AI-suggested

Organizations using WeGIA should immediately upgrade to version 3.2.8 or later where the vulnerability is patched. Until the upgrade is applied, implement strict input validation and output encoding on the local_recepcao parameter to neutralize any potentially malicious scripts. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts in the browser context. Conduct thorough security testing and code reviews focusing on input handling and output encoding throughout the application. Educate users about the risks of clicking on suspicious links or interacting with unexpected content within the application. Monitor logs for unusual input patterns or repeated attempts to exploit the cadastrarSocio.php endpoint. If upgrading is delayed, consider temporarily disabling or restricting access to the vulnerable endpoint to reduce exposure. Finally, ensure incident response plans are updated to handle potential XSS exploitation scenarios.

Description

WeGIA is a web manager for charitable institutions. A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was identified in the cadastrarSocio.php endpoint of the WeGIA application. This vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into the local_recepcao parameter. The injected scripts are stored on the server and executed automatically whenever the affected page is accessed by users, posing a significant security risk. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.8.

Impact

For European organizations, especially charitable institutions or NGOs using the WeGIA platform, this vulnerability poses significant risks. Exploitation could lead to theft of sensitive personal data of donors, beneficiaries, and staff, undermining trust and potentially violating GDPR regulations concerning data protection and privacy. Attackers could hijack user sessions, perform unauthorized transactions or data modifications, and spread malware or phishing attacks through the trusted application interface. This could result in reputational damage, financial loss, and regulatory penalties. Given that WeGIA is a niche product for charitable organizations, the impact is concentrated but critical for affected entities. The stored nature of the XSS increases the risk of widespread impact within an organization once the malicious payload is injected. Additionally, the requirement for user interaction (e.g., visiting the affected page) means social engineering or phishing could be used to increase exploitation success.

Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Implementation · Architecture and Design
Understand the context in which your data will be used and the encoding that will be expected. This is especially important when transmitting data between different components, or when generating outputs that can contain multiple encodings at the same time, such as web pages or multi-part mail messages.
