CVE-2025-56295Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unrestricted avatar upload

Published Sep 16, 2025 · Updated Sep 16, 2025

Unrestricted file upload in code-projects Computer Laboratory System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute PHP code. The Change Picture avatar workflow accepts a PHP file such as cmd.php and stores it where the web server executes it without restricting dangerous file types. A staff account and interaction with the avatar form are required; successful exploitation grants control under the web server's permissions.
