Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-9687 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting Portabilis i-Educar versions 2.0 through 2.10. The flaw resides in an unspecified function within the /module/HistoricoEscolar/processamentoApi file, where improper authorization checks allow an attacker to perform unauthorized actions. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely without requiring user interaction or elevated privileges, as indicated by the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N). The impact affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability at a low level, suggesting that unauthorized access or manipulation of educational records or related data may be possible but with limited scope or damage. The vulnerability is publicly known, but no active exploits have been reported in the wild. The weakness likely allows an attacker with low privileges to bypass authorization controls, potentially accessing or modifying student historical data or other sensitive educational information managed by the i-Educar platform. Given the nature of the affected module (historical school records), the vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data disclosure or data tampering, undermining trust in the educational management system.

Potential Impact

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions or government bodies using Portabilis i-Educar or similar educational management platforms, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive student data, including academic histories and personal information. This may result in breaches of data protection regulations such as GDPR, leading to legal and financial repercussions. The integrity of educational records could be compromised, affecting student evaluations and institutional credibility. Although the vulnerability requires low privileges, the remote exploitability increases risk of widespread attacks if the platform is exposed to the internet. The medium severity indicates moderate risk, but the potential impact on confidentiality and integrity of educational data is significant for organizations responsible for student information management. Disruption or manipulation of educational records could also affect administrative operations and trust in digital education systems across Europe.

Mitigation Recommendations

Organizations should immediately verify if they are running any affected versions (2.0 to 2.10) of Portabilis i-Educar and prioritize upgrading to a patched version once available. In the absence of official patches, implement strict network segmentation and firewall rules to restrict external access to the /module/HistoricoEscolar/processamentoApi endpoint, limiting it to trusted internal networks only. Employ robust access controls and monitor logs for unusual access patterns or unauthorized attempts targeting the processing API. Conduct thorough audits of user privileges to ensure minimal necessary access is granted, reducing the risk from low-privilege exploitation. Additionally, implement Web Application Firewalls (WAF) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious API requests. Regularly back up educational data and verify integrity to enable recovery in case of tampering. Finally, maintain close communication with the vendor for updates and advisories regarding patches or mitigations.
