CVE-2024-10994Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unvalidated image upload

Published Nov 8, 2024 · Updated Nov 8, 2024

Unrestricted file upload in Codezips Online Institute Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to upload arbitrary files. The edit_user.php handler uses the image field from $_FILES to select the destination path without validating or sanitizing the filename or file type. A low-privileged account can place executable PHP content in the web root, enabling server-side code execution under the web server account.
