Improper session invalidation in the component /bbdms/change-password.php of PHPGurukul Blood Bank & Donor Management System v2.4 allows attackers to execute a session hijacking attack.

AnalysisAI

Session hijacking in PHPGurukul Blood Bank & Donor Management System v2.4 stems from the /bbdms/change-password.php component failing to invalidate existing sessions after a password change, letting an attacker who obtains or captures a valid session token retain authenticated access even after the victim rotates credentials. Publicly available exploit code exists (GitHub, VasilVK), though the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV and carries a low EPSS score of 0.32% (24th percentile), indicating no evidence of widespread automated exploitation. The issue primarily threatens confidentiality of donor and blood-bank records in this niche PHP application.

Technical ContextAI

The affected software is PHPGurukul Blood Bank & Donor Management System, a small open-source PHP/MySQL web application (CPE cpe:2.3:a:phpgurukul:blood_bank_&_donor_management_system:2.4) used to manage blood inventory and donor records. The root cause is CWE-613 (Insufficient Session Expiration): the change-password.php workflow does not destroy or regenerate server-side session identifiers when a user updates their password, so previously issued session cookies remain valid. Secure session handling requires invalidating all active sessions (or at minimum regenerating the session ID) on credential change; the absence of this control means a compromised or intercepted session persists indefinitely until natural timeout.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, as the references contain only a proof-of-concept (https://github.com/VasilVK/CVE/tree/main/CVE-2025-50487) and no PHPGurukul advisory or fixed release. As compensating controls, modify change-password.php to call session regeneration and destroy all prior server-side sessions on password change (e.g., regenerate the session ID and invalidate old session records), which forces re-authentication and closes the hijack window with the side effect of logging users out of other devices. Enforce short session-idle timeouts and set cookies with HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite attributes to shrink the token-exposure surface, and require the application to be served exclusively over TLS to prevent cookie interception; restrict access to the /bbdms/ admin interface to trusted networks/VPN as an additional containment measure at the cost of remote convenience. Monitor the PHPGurukul site for an updated 2.4.x release and apply it once published.
