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

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 3 Aug 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: evidence found.
CVSS exploit maturity: proof of concept public
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), 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

Organizations should immediately apply the vendor-provided patch identified by commit 82c288b9a4abb084bdfa1c0c4ef777ed45f98b46 to remediate the vulnerability. In parallel, administrators should review and harden input validation and output encoding practices, especially for parameters like 'ref_cod_aluno' that are used in web interfaces. Implementing Content Security Policy (CSP) headers can help mitigate the impact of potential XSS attacks by restricting script execution sources. User awareness training focused on recognizing phishing attempts and suspicious links is recommended to reduce the risk of exploitation via social engineering. Monitoring web server logs for unusual parameter values or repeated access attempts to the vulnerable endpoint can help detect exploitation attempts. Additionally, organizations should consider deploying web application firewalls (WAFs) configured to detect and block XSS payloads targeting this specific parameter. Regular security assessments and code reviews of customizations or integrations with i-Educar should be conducted to identify any residual injection risks.

Description

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Portabilis i-Educar 2.10. This affects the function Gerar of the file ieducar/intranet/educar_matricula_lst.php. The manipulation of the argument ref_cod_aluno leads to cross site scripting. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of the patch is 82c288b9a4abb084bdfa1c0c4ef777ed45f98b46. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The vendor initially closed the original advisory without requesting a CVE.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using Portabilis i-Educar 2.10, this vulnerability poses a risk of session hijacking, data theft, and unauthorized actions performed via the victim's browser. The impact on confidentiality and integrity could lead to exposure of sensitive student data, unauthorized grade changes, or manipulation of enrollment information. Such breaches could result in regulatory non-compliance under GDPR, reputational damage, and potential legal consequences. The requirement for user interaction somewhat limits the attack scope, but phishing or social engineering campaigns could be used to trick users into triggering the exploit. Given the educational context, users may be less security-aware, increasing the risk. Additionally, the vulnerability could be leveraged as a foothold for further attacks within the network if combined with other vulnerabilities or misconfigurations.
