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: Passive: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires limited interaction by the targeted user with the vulnerable system and the attacker’s payload. These interactions would be considered involuntary and do not require that the user actively subvert protections built into the vulnerable system.
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: None: There is no impact to availability within 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

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), CVSS vector, 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.

AI-suggested

These include: 1) Employing web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block malicious input patterns targeting the 'Função' parameter. 2) Conducting user awareness training focused on phishing and social engineering to reduce the likelihood of users clicking malicious links. 3) Implementing Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict execution of unauthorized scripts in browsers. 4) Restricting access to the intranet module to trusted networks or VPNs to limit exposure. 5) Monitoring web server logs for suspicious requests containing script tags or unusual parameter values. 6) Planning for an upgrade or patch deployment once the vendor releases a fix or considering alternative software solutions if remediation is delayed. Additionally, organizations should review and harden session management to mitigate session hijacking risks.

Description

A vulnerability was found in Portabilis i-Educar 2.9.0 and classified as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /intranet/educar_funcao_det.php?cod_funcao=COD&ref_cod_instituicao=COD of the component Function Management Module. The manipulation of the argument Função leads to cross site scripting. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Impact

For European organizations, especially educational institutions using Portabilis i-Educar, this vulnerability poses a risk of session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users. Given that i-Educar is an education management system, exploitation could lead to exposure of sensitive student and staff information, manipulation of educational records, or disruption of administrative functions. The requirement for user interaction (clicking a malicious link) means phishing campaigns could be an effective attack vector. The medium severity indicates moderate risk, but the lack of vendor response and patch availability increases exposure time. Organizations relying on i-Educar for critical educational operations may face reputational damage and compliance issues under GDPR if personal data is compromised.

Summary

CVE-2025-7112 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified in Portabilis i-Educar version 2.9.0, specifically within the Function Management Module. The vulnerability arises from improper handling of the 'Função' parameter in the file /intranet/educar_funcao_det.php, where user-supplied input is not adequately sanitized or encoded before being reflected in the web application’s response. This flaw allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of the victim’s browser session. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely without authentication, requiring only that the attacker craft a specially crafted URL containing the malicious payload in the 'Função' parameter. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.1 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, but user interaction is necessary (victim must click the malicious link). The impact primarily affects confidentiality and integrity at a low level, with limited impact on availability. Although no known exploits are reported in the wild, public disclosure of the vulnerability and exploit details increases the risk of exploitation, especially in environments where i-Educar is used without additional protective controls.
