Summary
CVE-2026-25814 is a critical-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Prasklatechnology Placipy. Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 26th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-25814 is a critical vulnerability in PlaciPy version 1.0.0, a placement management system designed for educational institutions. The issue stems from user-controlled query parameters being passed directly into DynamoDB query and filter construction without validation or sanitization, enabling injection attacks. It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and is associated with CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command).
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Exploitation allows attackers to manipulate DynamoDB queries and filters, potentially achieving high impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, such as unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion.
The GitHub security advisory (GHSA-gmg6-mv7g-xjfv) at https://github.com/Praskla-Technology/assessment-placipy/security/advisories/GHSA-gmg6-mv7g-xjfv provides details on mitigation and patches.

Security testing in development catches injection vulnerabilities before release.
Logging supports detection of injection attempts but does not prevent the weakness.
Monitoring activities can identify active injection attacks after they occur.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevent injection flaws.
Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection attacks in software design.
Secure architecture principles reduce injection surfaces but do not prescribe specific neutralization techniques.
