MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Defense Evasion, Initial Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires network reachability to the application's User/login.php endpoint (the Login Form component) and the ability to supply the email and passwd parameters; per the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) no authentication, no special attack requirement, and no user interaction are needed, so default deployments reachable over the network are exposed. The practical limiting factor is not configuration but deployment scope: the product is an individual GitHub project with no versioned releases (rolling delivery pinned only to commit 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c) and essentially no production installations; impact is also bounded to Low confidentiality/integrity/availability with no scope change, so a successful bypass yields partial unauthorized access rather than full system takeover. |
| Impact | Real-world risk is moderate-to-low despite the improper-authentication class (CWE-287). The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) confirms a remotely reachable, unauthenticated, low-complexity flaw in the login form - attractive on paper - but every impact metric is only Low (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L, SC/SI/SA:N), yielding a medium 6.9 base score rather than critical, which signals partial rather than full account/system compromise. The exploit maturity is E:P (Proof-of-Concept), consistent with the publicly disclosed POC, but there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score provided in the input, so there is no evidence of widespread or automated active exploitation - treat this as 'publicly available exploit code exists', not active exploitation. The dominant risk-limiting factor is the target itself: an obscure student/hobby GitHub project (AdithyaYelloju/Restaurant-Management-System) with negligible production footprint. No SSVC decision data or EPSS was supplied - STATED EXPLICITLY as missing - so automatability and real-world exploitation probability cannot be quantified. Net: a genuine, easily-reproducible auth flaw of academic interest, but low operational priority for most organizations given minimal deployment. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted request to User/login.php manipulating the email/passwd parameters to bypass the authentication check and obtain an application session without valid credentials. A public proof-of-concept is referenced via the project's GitHub issue tracker (issue #11), lowering the skill barrier. Because CVSS complexity is Low and no user interaction is needed, exploitation is straightforward wherever the application is reachable. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 13, 2026
Improper authentication in AdithyaYelloju Restaurant-Management-System (pinned to commit 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass the login form via crafted email and passwd parameters in User/login.php. Publicly available exploit code exists (referenced in GitHub issue #11), but no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been observed. Despite a CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9, real-world risk is moderate-to-low because the project has no versioned releases and essentially no production installations; a successful bypass yields only low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. The upstream project has not responded to the issue report. As a compensating control, restrict network access to the User/login.php endpoint to trusted IPs or require an additional authentication layer (e.g., HTTP authentication via reverse proxy). Trade-off: IP allowlisting may not suit public-facing deployments, and added authentication could affect usability. Alternatively, if you maintain a fork, implement proper authentication checks in User/login.php and validate with security testing; trade-off is the development effort required. Because the project has essentially no production installations and no versioned releases, discontinuing use or migrating to a maintained alternative is advisable if the application is not essential.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability resides in the PHP-based Restaurant-Management-System, specifically the User/login.php script that processes the login form. The CWE-287 (Improper Authentication) classification indicates that the application fails to properly verify user identity when the email and passwd parameters are manipulated, allowing an attacker to bypass authentication. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:adithyayelloju:restaurant-management-system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* denotes that all versions of this project are potentially affected, but because the project uses a rolling release model, only the commit 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c is publicly referenced. No authentication, special attack requirements, or user interaction are needed per the CVSS 4.0 vector; the weakness is in the login logic itself.

A vulnerability has been found in AdithyaYelloju Restaurant-Management-System up to 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file User/login.php of the component Login Form. Such manipulation of the argument email/passwd leads to improper authentication. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. This product takes the approach of rolling releases to provide continious delivery. Therefore, version details for affected and updated releases are not available. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
