DescriptionCVE.org

A security vulnerability has been detected in Kushan2k student-management-system up to f16a4ceaddd6729c4b306ed4641cda3176c1ef2a. Affected by this issue is the function edit-admin of the file controllers/AdminController.php of the component Profile Update Endpoint. The manipulation of the argument isadmin leads to improper authorization. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. This product follows a rolling release approach for continuous delivery, so version details for affected or updated releases are not provided. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

AnalysisAI

Privilege escalation in Kushan2k student-management-system allows authenticated remote attackers to grant themselves administrator rights by manipulating the isadmin parameter in the Profile Update Endpoint. The edit-admin function in controllers/AdminController.php performs no server-side authorization check on this parameter, enabling any low-privileged account holder to self-elevate to admin. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must possess a valid, authenticated low-privileged account within the student-management-system application (CVSS PR:L confirms authentication is required). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 base score of 2.1 is intentionally low, driven by the requirement for prior authentication (PR:L) and a limited impact scope - confidentiality, integrity, and availability are each rated Low with no downstream scope change (SC:N/SI:N/SA:N). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated student or staff user with a standard low-privileged account sends a crafted HTTP POST request to the Profile Update Endpoint, appending or modifying the `isadmin` field to a truthy value (e.g., `isadmin=1`). Because `edit-admin` in AdminController.php applies the supplied value directly without an authorization check, the application persists the elevated role to the user's account. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis - the maintainer has not responded to disclosure per the CVE description. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
