Unauthenticated admin access via post-redirect execution
Published Mar 18, 2024 · Updated Aug 22, 2024
Execution after redirect in SourceCodester Employee Task Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to access admin-management functions. The /manage-admin.php endpoint redirects an unauthenticated request but fails to terminate processing, so protected handler logic still runs. No authentication or user interaction is required; public evidence does not identify the exact admin operation exposed by the continued execution.
