Code execution via unvalidated vehicle image uploads
Published May 19, 2025 · Updated May 19, 2025
Unrestricted file upload in PHPGurukul Car Rental Project 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute code through vehicle images. The administrator-only post-avehical.php handler accepts img1 through img5 filenames without extension validation and stores uploaded PHP files under the web root. Administrative access is required; a stored web shell executes with the web server's permissions and can expose or alter server data.
