CVE-2025-48372 (GCVE-0-2025-48372)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-05-22 20:38 – Updated: 2025-05-23 13:56

Title
Schule Has Insecure OTP Length, is Susceptible to Brute-Force Attacks
Summary
Schule is open-source school management system software. The generateOTP() function generates a 4-digit numeric One-Time Password (OTP). Prior to version 1.0.1, even if a secure random number generator is used, the short length and limited range (1000–9999) results in only 9000 possible combinations. This small keyspace makes the OTP highly vulnerable to brute-force attacks, especially in the absence of strong rate-limiting or lockout mechanisms. Version 1.0.1 fixes the issue.
