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 /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php endpoint of the Plan Management Form component; because the endpoint is missing an authentication check (CWE-287), an attacker simply submits the submit/Plan_no/Name parameters with no credentials, no user interaction, and no special configuration (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N). The primary limiting factors are deployment-related rather than technical: the product is a niche, self-hosted GitHub project that must be publicly exposed to be reachable, impact is confined to integrity (plan-data modification, VI:L) with no confidentiality or availability effect, and no official patch exists since the project is rolling-release and the maintainer has not responded.

Impact

Signals are mixed but point to a genuinely low real-world priority despite a network-reachable unauthenticated flaw. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) confirms remote, low-complexity, pre-authentication exploitation, which normally elevates urgency - but the impact metrics are narrow: only VC:N/VI:L/VA:N, meaning no confidentiality or availability impact and only limited integrity impact, yielding a MEDIUM 5.5 base score. The E:P (Proof-of-Concept) threat metric aligns with the description's statement that an exploit has been publicly disclosed, so POC availability is confirmed; however, there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score provided in the input, so widespread or automated exploitation cannot be asserted. No SSVC decision data was supplied. The affected product is an individual developer's GitHub project (dhikshitha29/Insurance-Management-System) with no enterprise footprint, which strongly bounds real-world exposure. Note a tension to verify: CWE-287 (missing authentication) combined with 'manipulation of the argument submit/Plan_no/Name' typically suggests an access-control/parameter-tampering issue affecting data integrity, consistent with VI:L and VC:N - but defenders should confirm with the referenced VulDB entry whether any read/exposure of data also occurs. Overall this is a high-visibility-but-low-impact issue on a niche product, not a fleet-wide emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote attacker sends a crafted HTTP request directly to /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php, which does not enforce authentication, and manipulates the submit/Plan_no/Name parameters to add or alter an insurance plan without valid admin credentials. A public proof-of-concept exists, and because no user interaction or authentication is required (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), the request can be issued against any reachable instance. The impact is limited to integrity (VI:L) - unauthorized modification of plan data - rather than full system compromise.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026

Missing authentication in the Plan Management Form of dhikshitha29 Insurance-Management-System lets unauthenticated remote attackers alter insurance plan records by posting to /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php. The flaw affects a rolling-release, self-hosted PHP project for which no version-specific fix is available; publicly available exploit code exists, and a project issue report remains unanswered. Impact is limited to integrity of plan data (assessed CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N), with no confidentiality or availability effect and no confirmed active exploitation.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch was identified at time of analysis; the project issue report (https://github.com/dhikshitha29/Insurance-Management-System/issues/5) has not been answered and the rolling-release model provides no fixed version. Apply an authentication gate in front of the entire /Admin/ path using the web server or a reverse proxy (for example, HTTP Basic auth or an SSO/OIDC proxy), accepting the operational overhead of managing credentials for all administrative users and the risk that Basic auth is only as strong as TLS and password hygiene. Alternatively, restrict reachability to /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php and other admin endpoints with a network allowlist, VPN, or mTLS, which prevents untrusted remote exploitation but complicates legitimate remote administration. If the application must remain publicly reachable, add a server-side session/auth check at the top of AddNewPlan-inc.php and validate that the submit action is authorized, or temporarily disable the Plan Management form; both require code maintenance and testing, and disabling the form removes plan-management functionality. Monitor the GitHub issue and VulDB entry https://vuldb.com/vuln/424680 for an upstream fix.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The target is a PHP-based insurance management web application distributed as a rolling-release GitHub project. The vulnerable component is the Plan Management Form handler at /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php, which processes the submit, Plan_no, and Name parameters but fails to enforce an authentication or authorization check, matching CWE-287 (Improper Authentication). Because the endpoint is reachable over the network and no credentials or user interaction are required per the assessed vector, an attacker can submit crafted requests directly to create or modify plan records. The impact class is integrity-only (VI:L), as the handler's functionality is limited to plan-data manipulation; there is no indicated path to read sensitive data or disrupt availability. No CPE information was supplied, and the project's rolling-release model means commit-based deployments are affected rather than fixed release versions.

DescriptionCVE.org

A security vulnerability has been detected in dhikshitha29 Insurance-Management-System 91de5edda5baa109ad8e9baf03ce6a3ceda84183/125362cc21dca20d74091a4913a5096bb58dd837. This affects an unknown part of the file /Admin/includes/AddNewPlan-inc.php of the component Plan Management Form. The manipulation of the argument submit/Plan_no/Name leads to missing authentication. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. This product is using a rolling release to provide continious delivery. Therefore, no version details for affected nor updated releases are available. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
