CVE-2022-4229Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated administrative actions via unguarded routes

Published Nov 30, 2022 · Updated Apr 14, 2025

Improper access control in SourceCodester Book Store Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to perform administrative actions. The user/add and user/hapus routes process account-creation and deletion requests without checking for an authenticated session. No session cookie or login is required, so any network client that can reach the application can create or delete user accounts and alter managed records.
