A flaw has been found in SourceCodester Multi-Vendor Online Grocery Management System 1.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function cancel_order of the file classes/Master.php. Executing a manipulation can lead to improper authorization. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been published and may be used.
AnalysisAI
Improper authorization in SourceCodester Multi-Vendor Online Grocery Management System 1.0 allows a low-privileged remote attacker to invoke the cancel_order function in classes/Master.php against orders they do not own, enabling unauthorized order cancellation and limited disruption of platform integrity. The vulnerability stems from CWE-285 (Improper Authorization) - the application fails to verify that the requesting user has authority over the targeted order resource. A proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly disclosed on GitHub, lowering the bar for exploitation; however, no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
The affected product is SourceCodester Multi-Vendor Online Grocery Management System version 1.0, a PHP-based web application (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:sourcecodester:multi-vendor_online_grocery_management_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The vulnerable code path is the cancel_order function within classes/Master.php, a server-side PHP class handler likely invoked via an AJAX or direct HTTP request. CWE-285 (Improper Authorization) indicates the function performs no adequate ownership check - it processes a cancel request for an order ID without confirming the authenticated session user is the order's owner, a classic server-side authorization bypass pattern (often referred to as an IDOR - Insecure Direct Object Reference). The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms network delivery (AV:N), no attack complexity barrier (AC:L), and no additional attack prerequisites (AT:N), consistent with a straightforward parameter manipulation attack.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis - the fix version is not confirmed from the available references. The immediate recommended remediation is to add a server-side ownership check inside the cancel_order function in classes/Master.php, verifying that the session user ID matches the user_id associated with the order being cancelled before processing the cancellation. Until a patch is available, deployers can mitigate risk by restricting account registration to trusted users only, which reduces the pool of potential attackers to known parties. Additionally, implementing application-level rate limiting on order cancellation endpoints can reduce abuse velocity. Web application firewall rules that flag unusually high volumes of cancel_order requests from a single session may also provide early detection. Consult the VulDB entry at https://vuldb.com/vuln/376289 and the POC at https://github.com/lee945/cve/issues/4 for technical details to inform patch development. Trade-off: restricting registration limits platform growth; rate limiting may affect legitimate bulk users.
