CVE-2025-11950: Reflected XSS in Knowhy's EduAsist
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (XSS or 'Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in KNOWHY Advanced Technology Trading Ltd. Co. EduAsist allows Reflected XSS.
This issue affects EduAsist: before v2.1.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2025-11950 is a reflected cross-site scripting issue in Knowhy EduAsist before version 2.1. An attacker could trick a user into opening a malicious link that runs script in the user’s browser. Business impact is moderate because user interaction is required and the CVSS impact is limited.
Executive priority
Treat as a normal-priority remediation for affected EduAsist deployments. Prioritize internet-facing or broadly used instances, but this is not currently supported as an emergency issue by the provided exploitation evidence.
Technical view
The CVE describes CWE-79 improper input neutralization during web page generation in EduAsist before v2.1. CVSS 3.1 is 6.3, with network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, and low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Organizations running Knowhy EduAsist versions before 2.1 are potentially exposed, especially if the application is reachable by users over a network. The provided sources do not identify specific deployment types, modules, endpoints, or vulnerable parameters.
Exploitation context
No CISA KEV listing is reported in the provided data, and no cited source states active exploitation. Exploitation would require convincing a user to interact with attacker-controlled content that triggers reflected script execution in EduAsist.
Researcher notes
Public details are limited. The CVE identifies product, version boundary, weakness class, and CVSS vector, but not vulnerable endpoints, parameters, proof-of-concept details, or confirmed exploitation. One listed USOM URL is marked broken in the source bundle.
Mitigation direction
Inventory EduAsist deployments and identify versions in use.
Upgrade EduAsist to version 2.1 or later where applicable.
Review the Turkish government advisory for any vendor-specific instructions.
Apply standard XSS hardening controls, including output encoding and input validation.
Use web filtering or user awareness to reduce malicious-link exposure.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether EduAsist is present in your environment.
Verify the installed EduAsist version is not earlier than 2.1.
Check vendor or advisory pages for updated remediation guidance.
Review web logs for suspicious reflected-input patterns, without testing live exploit payloads.
Confirm browser-side security headers and application XSS protections are enabled.

Client-side and session-facing weaknesses should be reviewed alongside initial-access and user-execution behaviors. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
