Technical ContextAI · show details

Classified as CWE-284 (Improper Access Control). Affects Hospital Management System. PHPGurukul Hospital Management System v4.0 contains a Privilege Escalation vulnerability. A low-privileged user (Patient) can directly access the Administrator Dashboard and all sub-modules (e.g., User Logs, Doctor Management) by manually browsing to the /admin/ directory after authentication. This allows any self-registered user to takeover the application, view confidential logs, and modify system data.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A critical privilege escalation vulnerability in PHPGurukul Hospital Management System v4.0 allows any authenticated patient user to bypass access controls and directly access the administrator dashboard, including sensitive modules such as user logs and doctor management. This exposes protected health information (PHI), operational data, and system configurations to unauthorized modification or disclosure, creating immediate compliance risk under HIPAA and potential liability for patient data breaches.

Business Impact: Severe

Compensating Controls

Implement WAF rules to block unauthenticated or patient-role requests to /admin/* paths; apply network segmentation to restrict admin dashboard access to administrative subnets only; deploy a reverse proxy with role-based URL filtering; disable the Hospital Management System until access controls can be verified; implement enhanced audit logging and real-time alerting for unauthorized admin access attempts; conduct mandatory access reviews for all privileged accounts.
