Unauthenticated account deletion via unchecked ID
Published Feb 23, 2026 · Updated Feb 23, 2026
Improper access control in SourceCodester Student Result Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to delete administrator accounts. The drop_user.php endpoint accepts an id value in a GET request and executes a parameterized DELETE against tbl_staff without session or authorization checks. No credentials or user interaction are required; deleting the primary administrator record interrupts administrative access.
