Submit #1000551: SourceCodester Cafe and Restaurant Billing System e32c5d5 Missing Authorizationinfo

TitelSourceCodester Cafe and Restaurant Billing System e32c5d5 Missing Authorization
BeschreibungSourceCodester Cafe and Restaurant Billing System (commit e32c5d5) allows unauthenticated admin account creation. ajax.php, the single router for all backend actions, contains no session or authorization check. Action::save_user() in admin_class.php:61-81 runs extract($_POST) and builds INSERT INTO users including type='$type', which is fully attacker-controlled (schema defines 1=Admin, 2=Staff). An unauthenticated POST to ajax.php?action=save_user with type=1 creates an administrator; the attacker then logs in via the normal action=login flow and receives a full admin session. The same missing authorization also exposes pre-auth delete_user, save_product, delete_product, save_order, delete_order, save_category, and delete_category. CVSS 3.1 score 9.8 Critical, vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. Discovered by Santhosh Kumar, TraceX Labs.
