CVE-2026-1424Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Stored script execution via unchecked profile-image upload

Published Jan 26, 2026 · Updated Jan 26, 2026

Unrestricted file upload in PHPGurukul News Portal 1.0 allows remote authenticated users with administrative privileges to store dangerous files. The profile-picture handlers assign the profile_pic upload directly to user records without validating its extension, MIME type, content, or image format. A crafted SVG executes stored script when an administrator or subadministrator views the uploaded profile image.
