1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion

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

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated low-privilege account on the application (PR:L), after which the attacker sends a remote request to the file admin/admin.php and manipulates the 'Name' argument processed by the Role Attribute Handler to bypass authorization controls. No user interaction is needed (UI:N) and no non-default configuration is indicated. The primary limiting factors are the mandatory prior authentication, the low technical impact (only partial confidentiality/integrity/availability per VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), and the product's negligible deployment footprint; multiple endpoints are reportedly affected, but all are gated behind the same authenticated access requirement.

Impact

This is a low-priority, low-severity issue despite being an 'authorization bypass,' and the signals are internally consistent rather than conflicting. The vendor-supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) with low impact across all three dimensions (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) yields a base-equivalent score of only 2.1, and critically it carries PR:L - meaning exploitation requires the attacker to already hold at least a low-privilege authenticated account, which substantially caps real-world risk. Exploit maturity is marked E:P (Proof-of-Concept), and the description confirms a public exploit exists, so publicly available exploit code exists; however, this must NOT be conflated with active exploitation. There is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score provided in the input, so widespread opportunistic exploitation cannot be asserted. The product is a hobbyist GitHub food-waste-management project with no versioning and an unresponsive maintainer, so even though the flaw is network-reachable, its practical exposure is minimal. Note a minor terminology tension: the input Tag reads 'Authentication Bypass' while the description and CWE-285 both describe 'authorization bypass' (improper authorization of an already-authenticated user) - verify framing, but it does not change the low-risk conclusion.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged authenticated user of the application sends a crafted request to admin/admin.php manipulating the 'Name' argument handled by the Role Attribute Handler, tampering with role/authorization attributes to access functionality they should not have. A public proof-of-concept has been disclosed, lowering the skill barrier, though the attacker must first possess a valid low-privilege account and the impact is limited to partial read/write/availability effects.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 05, 2026

Authorization bypass in the kishor-23 Food Waste Management System (a PHP web application) allows an authenticated low-privilege user to send a crafted remote request to admin/admin.php and manipulate the 'Name' argument processed by the Role Attribute Handler, thereby obtaining elevated role attributes and reaching administrative functionality across multiple endpoints. Upstream has not responded to the early issue report, the project does not use versioning, and publicly available exploit code exists (CVSS 4.0 E:P proof-of-concept), though the issue is not listed in CISA KEV and no active exploitation is confirmed. Consistent with our independent assessment, impact is limited to low confidentiality, integrity and availability loss, so this is a low-priority but still remediable flaw that requires only a standard authenticated account and no user interaction.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the maintainer was notified early through the GitHub issue report (https://github.com/kishor-23/food-waste-management-system/issues/11) and has not responded, and the project's lack of versioning means no fixed release number exists to cite. The most direct compensating control is to add a server-side authorization check in the Role Attribute Handler that ignores any client-supplied 'Name' value and derives the caller's role solely from the server-side session, with the trade-off that this requires a custom code patch that the maintainer may later overwrite and that must be re-applied if the project is updated. Until such a patch is in place, restrict network access to admin/admin.php and to the other role-handling endpoints identified in the issue report by placing them behind a VPN, an IP allow-list, or a reverse-proxy rule that only permits trusted administrative networks, accepting the trade-off that this removes legitimate remote administrative use. Additionally, tighten account hygiene: disable or heavily monitor self-registration and audit existing low-privilege accounts, since exploitation requires only one authenticated session (PR:L) and no user interaction (UI:N), though this trade-off reduces ease of onboarding. Because public exploit code exists, log and alert on anomalous requests to the admin role-handling endpoints, and subscribe to the VULDB advisory (https://vuldb.com/vuln/413403) or the vendor repository for a formal fix; if the application cannot be patched or isolated, consider taking it offline, as removing administrative role trust from client input is the only root-cause fix.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is a PHP-based web application hosted in the GitHub repository kishor-23/food-waste-management-system (commits 411989e3ecb82895e53dca7865f72145f03d7d93 and b3a70b2c492dc9904de5be1ad9389bd79b87f82c), whose 'Role Attribute Handler' logic lives in admin/admin.php. The root cause class is CWE-285 (Improper Authorization): the code trusts a client-supplied 'Name' parameter when assigning or evaluating a role attribute and does not re-validate that attribute against the caller's server-side session role, so a low-privileged, already-authenticated user can cause the application to treat them as holding a higher-privileged role. Because the same handler is reachable from multiple endpoints, the bypass is not confined to a single script, and the vulnerability chain is triggered over the network (AV:N/PR:L per the supplied CVSS 4.0 vector and our CVSS 3.1 assessment) with no user interaction and no non-default configuration required. No CPE identifiers are provided, and because the project publishes no releases or version numbers, affected builds can only be identified by the referenced commit hashes rather than by version strings.

Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file admin/admin.php of the component Role Attribute Handler. Such manipulation of the argument Name leads to authorization bypass. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. This product does not use versioning. This is why information about affected and unaffected releases are unavailable. Multiple endpoints are affected. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
