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

Organizations should immediately audit their i-Educar installations to identify affected versions (2.0 through 2.10). In the interim, implement input validation and output encoding on the nm_nivel/descricao parameter to neutralize malicious scripts. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules targeting XSS payloads to block exploit attempts. Educate users to recognize suspicious links or unexpected behavior within the i-Educar platform. Restrict access to the intranet portion of the application to trusted IP ranges and enforce strict authentication and session management controls. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on web application vulnerabilities. Monitoring logs for unusual activity related to the vulnerable endpoint can help detect exploitation attempts early.

Description

A vulnerability was determined in Portabilis i-Educar up to 2.10. This impacts an unknown function of the file /intranet/educar_nivel_ensino_cad.php. Executing manipulation of the argument nm_nivel/descricao can lead to cross site scripting. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using Portabilis i-Educar, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized script execution within users' browsers. This can lead to theft of session cookies, user impersonation, phishing attacks, or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of legitimate users. The impact is significant in environments where sensitive student or staff data is managed, potentially leading to data breaches or reputational damage. Since i-Educar is an educational management platform, exploitation could disrupt administrative workflows or compromise personal information of students and staff. Additionally, the presence of malicious scripts could be used to spread malware or conduct further attacks within the network. Given the remote exploitability and public availability of exploit code, European educational institutions must prioritize addressing this vulnerability to prevent exploitation.

Summary

CVE-2025-9724 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified in the Portabilis i-Educar platform, specifically affecting versions 2.0 through 2.10. The vulnerability resides in the /intranet/educar_nivel_ensino_cad.php file, where improper sanitization or validation of the nm_nivel/descricao parameter allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts. This flaw enables remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the victim's browser without requiring authentication. The vulnerability is exploitable over the network with low attack complexity and does not require privileges or prior user interaction, although some user interaction may be needed to trigger the malicious payload. The CVSS v4.0 base score is 5.1, indicating a medium severity level. The vulnerability could be leveraged to perform actions such as session hijacking, defacement, or redirecting users to malicious sites. Although no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, public disclosure of the exploit code increases the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality and integrity primarily, with limited direct impact on availability. The scope is limited to the affected i-Educar installations, which are educational management systems used primarily by schools and educational institutions for administrative purposes.
