Authenticated account creation via missing server-side authorization
Published Feb 6, 2026 · Updated Feb 6, 2026
Improper access control in SourceCodester Gas Agency Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to create user accounts. The createUser.php endpoint processes direct administrative POST requests without a server-side role check, relying only on client-side restrictions. A normal authenticated session is sufficient to create unauthorized accounts; related privileged endpoints also accept bookings, consumers, and cylinders.
