DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability has been found in SourceCodester Class and Exam Timetabling System 1.0. Affected is an unknown function of the file /admin/edit_user_account.php of the component User Account Update. Such manipulation of the argument id/username leads to improper authorization. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

AnalysisAI

Improper authorization in SourceCodester Class and Exam Timetabling System 1.0 allows a low-privileged authenticated attacker to manipulate the id or username parameters in /admin/edit_user_account.php to modify user accounts they do not own or administer. The flaw is rooted in missing access control checks on the User Account Update endpoint, enabling horizontal or vertical privilege escalation by forging parameter values. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least a low-privilege account on the Class and Exam Timetabling System 1.0 instance - confirmed by CVSS PR:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) scores 5.3 and reflects low complexity and no attack requirements beyond a low-privilege session, with limited integrity and availability impact (VI:L/VA:L) and no confidentiality exposure. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker registers or obtains a low-privilege account on the timetabling system, then crafts a direct HTTP request to `/admin/edit_user_account.php` with a manipulated `id` or `username` parameter targeting an administrator account. Because the endpoint does not verify session ownership of the targeted record, the attacker can overwrite the administrator's credentials or account details, effectively hijacking the admin account and gaining full control of the application. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis - SourceCodester distributes this as a free script and has not published a security advisory with a fixed version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
