Published Mar 8, 2026 · Updated Mar 8, 2026
IDOR in SourceCodester Patients Waiting Area Queue Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to submit another patient's check-in. checkin.php trusts the patient_id URL parameter and creates a queue entry without verifying that the authenticated account owns or may act for that patient. An authenticated account and network access are required; successful exploitation impersonates another patient and alters waiting-room records.
