Administrator account creation via blank form token
Published Jan 7, 2024 · Updated Jun 3, 2025
Authorization bypass in SourceCodester Clinic Queuing System 1.0 allows remote attackers to create an administrator account without credentials. LoginRegistration.php compares the submitted formToken with an unset session token, so a blank value passes the equality check and save_user accepts attacker-chosen credentials and administrator type. An unauthenticated network request is sufficient, and the resulting account can access the application's administrator management functions.
