MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Command and Control, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an authenticated high-privilege (admin) account able to reach the manage-food.php food-management upload function (PR:H) - this is NOT unauthenticated. Given an admin session, no user interaction is needed (UI:N) and the attack is remote over the network (AV:N/AC:L). The primary limiting factor is the admin-authentication prerequisite; secondary factors are the product's rolling-release nature (no fixed version to target) and its very small deployment base. Successful weaponization also assumes the server executes uploaded PHP from the upload directory. |
| Impact | This is a CWE-434 unrestricted file upload in mwasikz robo-cafe-rms (manage-food.php), rated CVSS 4.0 5.1 (Medium) by VulDB. The vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw but requiring HIGH privileges (PR:H) - i.e., the manage-food admin function is only reachable by an already-authenticated high-privilege user, which is the single most important limiting factor and the reason the score is only Medium despite file-upload's RCE potential. Exploitation status: publicly available exploit code exists (E:P / 'exploit disclosed to the public'), but there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score in the provided data, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation - POC availability and active exploitation are distinct signals. The vendor's own impact rating (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) is arguably conservative: an unrestricted upload that permits a PHP webshell typically yields full compromise (C/I/A:H); this is a notable discrepancy to verify against the POC. Overall this is a low-to-medium real-world priority: the PR:H barrier plus the obscure, tiny-footprint product outweigh the public POC. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who already holds an authenticated high-privilege (admin) session on a robo-cafe-rms deployment abuses the food-management upload in manage-food.php to upload a malicious PHP file (e.g., a webshell) instead of a menu image, then requests that file to execute code on the server. A public exploit has been disclosed, lowering the effort to reproduce, though the attacker must first possess admin credentials. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 29, 2026
Unrestricted file upload in mwasikz robo-cafe-rms (the manage-food.php food-management endpoint) lets an attacker with an authenticated high-privilege admin session upload arbitrary files to the web server over the network, which can lead to remote code execution if the server executes uploaded PHP from the upload directory. All deployments are affected, since the project ships as a rolling release with no versioned affected or fixed builds (CPE cpe:2.3:a:mwasikz:robo-cafe-rms:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). Publicly available exploit code exists, and the vendor was contacted early but did not respond, so no vendor-released patch has been identified; VulDB rates the issue CVSS 4.0 5.1 (Medium), while our independent CVSS 3.1 assessment of AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H places it higher (7.2 High) because successful upload can yield full confidentiality, integrity and availability impact on the host. The main limiting factor is the admin-authentication prerequisite (PR:H), which makes this an authenticated post-compromise escalation rather than an unauthenticated remote compromise.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis: the vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond, and the rolling-release project publishes no versioned fixed build to upgrade to, so operators must rely on compensating controls. The highest-value mitigation is to eliminate the code-execution precondition by disabling PHP (and any other server-side script) execution in the application's upload directory via the web server configuration - for Apache, remove the PHP handler for that path with a <Directory> block containing php_admin_flag engine off and Require all denied for *.php, or for nginx set location ~* /uploads/.*\.php$ { return 403; } - with the trade-off that any legitimate dynamic content served from that directory will stop working. Additionally restrict access to manage-food.php and the admin panel by IP allowlisting or placing it behind a VPN/reverse proxy with authentication, so that the PR:H admin prerequisite cannot be satisfied by an internet-based attacker; enforce server-side upload validation (extension and MIME-type whitelisting, magic-byte checks, randomized non-guessable filenames) and store uploads outside the web root; audit and rotate admin credentials and session tokens in case of prior compromise. If patching upstream becomes available, consult https://vuldb.com/vuln/411165 and https://vuldb.com/cve/CVE-2026-102263 for updated guidance and apply the maintainer's fix as soon as it is published.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The flaw is CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type) in the PHP-based food-management module of the robo-cafe-rms application, specifically the manage-food.php handler. PHP applications that accept file uploads without validating file type, extension or content can be abused to place attacker-controlled scripts (for example .php web shells) into a web-accessible directory; if the web server is configured to execute PHP in that directory, the upload is converted directly into remote code execution. CPE data identifies the affected package as mwasikz:robo-cafe-rms with a wildcard version, reflecting the project's rolling-release delivery model in which no discrete affected or updated version numbers exist. Exploitation requires an authenticated session with high privileges because the vulnerable function lives behind the admin-only food management interface (CVSS PR:H), and successful weaponization additionally depends on the deployment executing uploaded files rather than serving them as static content.
