Administrator password change via CSRF in save_users
Published Jul 10, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024
CSRF in SourceCodester Employee and Visitor Gate Pass Logging System 1.0 allows remote attackers to change an administrator password. The Users.php save_users() route accepts a credentialed multipart POST that rewrites user ID 1 without validating a CSRF token or request origin. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to activate attacker-controlled HTML, after which the administrator account password is replaced.
