CVE-2025-60500 — Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type in Qdocs Smart School

QDocs Smart School Management System 7.1 allows authenticated users with roles such as "accountant" or "admin" to bypass file type restrictions in the media upload feature by abusing the alternate YouTube URL option. This logic flaw permits uploading of arbitrary PHP files, which are stored in a web-accessible directory.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

EPSS 0.5% (30-day exploitation probability)+7
Technical severity (high)+6

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Qdocs Smart School).
Apply the documented mitigations until a definitive fix is available.
Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (file handling), errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2025-60500 is "Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type in Qdocs Smart School", rated High. It affects Smart School (Qdocs); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 7.2 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.53% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
