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: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 4 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

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 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

Organizations should immediately audit and enhance access control mechanisms on the /student/get-receipt API endpoint to ensure that users can only access their own records. Implement strict server-side authorization checks that validate the ownership of the 'rec_no' parameter against the authenticated user's identity. Employ API gateways or web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block anomalous parameter tampering attempts. Monitor API logs for unusual access patterns, such as repeated requests with varying 'rec_no' values from the same user account. Enforce the principle of least privilege on user accounts to limit the potential damage from compromised credentials. Educate users and administrators about the risks of credential compromise and implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce unauthorized access. Coordinate with EduplusCampus vendors to obtain patches or updates addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on API endpoints to detect similar authorization weaknesses.

Description

An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in the EduplusCampus 3.0.1 Student Payment API allows authenticated users to access other students personal and financial records by modifying the 'rec_no' parameter in the /student/get-receipt endpoint.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using EduplusCampus 3.0.1, this vulnerability presents a serious risk to student privacy and data protection compliance under regulations such as GDPR. Unauthorized access to personal and financial records can lead to data breaches, reputational damage, and potential legal penalties. The confidentiality of sensitive student information is directly compromised, which may also facilitate identity theft or financial fraud. Since exploitation requires authentication, insider threats or compromised accounts pose a significant risk vector. The lack of impact on integrity and availability means systems remain operational and data unaltered, but the exposure of confidential data alone is critical. The vulnerability could undermine trust in educational service providers and lead to increased scrutiny from data protection authorities. Additionally, the breach of financial data could have cascading effects on payment processing and institutional financial operations.

Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #24OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
Architecture and Design
For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
Architecture and Design · Implementation
Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
Architecture and Design
Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
