Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-70027 is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability, corresponding to CWE-918, discovered in Sunbird-Ed SunbirdEd-portal version 1.13.4. Published on 2026-03-11T15:16:21.507, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N), indicating high confidentiality impact with no effects on integrity or availability.

Remote, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Exploitation allows attackers to obtain sensitive information hosted on internal systems or otherwise inaccessible resources via forged requests from the vulnerable server.

Mitigation details and further technical information are available in the referenced advisories, including https://gist.github.com/zcxlighthouse/6eac455e9094ae313a1c39c25d520b3d, https://github.com/Sunbird-Ed, and https://github.com/Sunbird-Ed/SunbirdEd-portal.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Information flow enforcement can restrict which destinations the server is allowed to contact on behalf of users.

Input validation directly stops untrusted URLs from being accepted and fetched without destination checks.

Boundary protection limits the network reach of server-initiated requests even if SSRF occurs.
