Authenticated file inclusion via page parameter
Published Dec 8, 2023 · Updated May 27, 2025
File inclusion in index.php in Simple Student Attendance System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to access unintended files. The index.php routing logic uses the attacker-controlled page argument as a file reference without a published validation or allowlist boundary. The CNA scores the attack as adjacent-network and low-privileged, while the public record does not specify which files can be read or whether included code executes.
