The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation targets the Admin Signup component specifically via the file admin/signup.php, by manipulating the 'sign' argument to bypass the missing authentication check. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicates no authentication, no special configuration, and no user interaction are required, so a default deployment with the admin signup endpoint network-reachable is exploitable. The primary limiting factor is exposure and deployment scale: the affected instance must be internet- or network-accessible to the attacker, and the product is an obscure open-source project that is rarely deployed in production. No patched release is available because the project uses continuous/rolling delivery and has not responded to the report.

Impact

Signals are consistent but point to modest real-world risk. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) indicates a remotely reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw, which normally elevates concern, yet the vendor-assigned impact is uniformly low (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) and the base score is only 5.5 (Medium). The E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit maturity and the explicit statement that 'the exploit has been made available to the public' confirm POC availability, but this is NOT the same as active exploitation - the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV and no EPSS score was provided in the input, so widespread or automated exploitation cannot be asserted. The most important mitigating signal is target obscurity: kishor-23/food-waste-management-system is an individual-developer GitHub project with no known enterprise footprint, so despite the easy-to-exploit profile this is a low-priority issue for most defenders. Note a tension worth flagging: the flaw is a missing-authentication weakness on an Admin Signup endpoint (CWE-287), which in principle could permit unauthorized administrative account creation and justify higher integrity impact than the vendor's VI:L - verify actual admin privilege gained before downgrading on impact alone.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted request to admin/signup.php, manipulating the 'sign' parameter to bypass the authentication control guarding the Admin Signup component. Because a public proof-of-concept exists, an attacker can reproduce the bypass with little effort to register or escalate to an administrative account on an exposed instance. No user interaction or prior credentials are required.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 05, 2026

Missing authentication in the Admin Signup component (admin/signup.php) of the kishor-23 Food Waste Management System allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the 'sign' argument and bypass the intended signup/authentication check, resulting in limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected endpoint. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N, E:P) confirms the attack is network-reachable, requires no credentials or user interaction, and that publicly available exploit code exists; there is no CISA KEV entry, so active exploitation in the wild is not confirmed. Real-world risk is modest: the project is an obscure open-source PHP application, generally not deployed at production scale, and the project has not responded to the issue report, meaning no patched release is available.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch is identified at time of analysis: the project was notified early via issue https://github.com/kishor-23/food-waste-management-system/issues/10 and has not responded, and its continuous-delivery model means there is no fixed version to pin to, so remediation must be compensatory until an upstream fix appears. The most direct control is to remove or disable the admin signup functionality - delete or rename admin/signup.php, or comment out the signup route in the application's routing/bootstrap - which closes the bypass entirely but also removes any legitimate use of that page, including for non-production signup testing. Because the vector is AV:N/PR:N/UI:N, network-level restriction is effective: block or rate-limit requests to /admin/signup.php at the reverse proxy or WAF and reject any request whose 'sign' parameter is present or unexpected; the trade-off is that a WAF rule is bypassable if the attacker tampers with encoding or parameters, and blanket blocking of admin paths may interfere with legitimate administrative workflows. Restrict the admin area to trusted source IP ranges or place it behind a VPN or mTLS client-certificate gate, which cannot be reached by unauthenticated remote attackers but adds friction for administrators and requires maintaining an allowlist. Additionally, implement server-side session enforcement and authorization checks in code (validate that the caller holds an authenticated admin session before any signup logic executes) rather than trusting the 'sign' request argument. Monitor web logs for anomalous GET/POST requests to admin/signup.php as a detection measure, and track the GitHub repository and the VulDB entries (https://vuldb.com/cve/CVE-2026-105170, https://vuldb.com/vuln/413402) for a future upstream fix; since no ETA or fixed version exists, do not assume the rolling codebase will be patched soon.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected software is a small open-source PHP web application (kishor-23 food-waste-management-system) that manages food waste collection workflows and exposes a public GitHub repository with a rolling, continuously delivered codebase rather than semantic versioned releases. The flaw resides in the Admin Signup handler at admin/signup.php, where the value of the 'sign' argument controls the authentication/authorization branch of the signup flow; by supplying a crafted value, a remote attacker reaches administrative signup functionality that should require prior authentication. This is a classic improper authentication flaw (CWE-287), specifically an authentication bypass by parameter manipulation rather than a memory-safety or injection defect. The application layer is PHP with a web-facing entry point, so the only precondition for exploitation is that the admin/signup.php endpoint be reachable from the attacker's network (CVSS 4.0 AV:N/PR:N/UI:N corroborates no authentication, no special configuration, and no user interaction). Because the product follows continuous delivery, no discrete affected version identifiers or CPE strings exist, and neither the vendor nor NVD has published a fixed release or version boundary; the relevant code states are identified only by the two commit hashes cited in the report.

DescriptionCVE.org

A weakness has been identified in kishor-23 food-waste-management-system 411989e3ecb82895e53dca7865f72145f03d7d93/b3a70b2c492dc9904de5be1ad9389bd79b87f82c. Affected is an unknown function of the file admin/signup.php of the component Admin Signup. This manipulation of the argument sign causes missing authentication. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. Continious delivery with rolling releases is used by this product. Therefore, no version details of affected nor updated releases are available. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
