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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: High: There is a total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all information within the Vulnerable System being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact. For example, an attacker steals the administrator's password, or private encryption keys of a web server.
Vulnerable system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within 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.

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 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.

2) Implement custom log filtering or redaction mechanisms to mask or remove sensitive information before it is logged. 3) Monitor logs and network traffic for unusual access patterns or data exfiltration attempts. 4) Consider deploying application-layer firewalls or intrusion detection systems to detect attempts to access sensitive logs. 5) Engage with Praskla-Technology for updates or patches and plan for prompt application once available. 6) Conduct security awareness training for staff to recognize potential exploitation signs. 7) Review and audit logging configurations regularly to ensure no sensitive data is logged in plaintext.

Description

CVE-2026-25813 is a high-severity vulnerability in PlaciPy version 1.0.0, a placement management system used by educational institutions. The vulnerability involves the insertion of highly sensitive information directly into console logs without any masking or redaction, classified under CWE-532. This flaw allows an attacker with network access to potentially retrieve sensitive data from logs, as no authentication or user interaction is required. Although no known exploits are currently reported in the wild, the vulnerability's high CVSS score (8.7) reflects its critical impact on confidentiality. European educational institutions using PlaciPy 1.0.0 are at risk of sensitive data exposure, which could lead to privacy violations and regulatory non-compliance.

Impact

For European organizations, especially educational institutions using PlaciPy 1.0.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality of sensitive student and placement data. Exposure of such data could lead to privacy violations, reputational damage, and legal consequences under GDPR and other data protection laws. Attackers could leverage leaked sensitive information to conduct targeted phishing, identity theft, or unauthorized access to other systems. The lack of authentication and user interaction requirements makes exploitation easier, increasing the likelihood of data compromise. Additionally, the vulnerability could undermine trust in educational technology providers and disrupt placement management operations. Given the critical nature of educational data and strict regulatory environment in Europe, the impact is substantial.
