| Titre | PHPGurukul News Portal Project in PHP and MySql 1.0 Improper Access Controls |
|---|
| Description | The News Portal Project in PHP and MySql in PHPGurukul admin panel suffers from a broken access control vulnerability that allows a sub-admin user to perform admin-only actions. The endpoint `/news/admin/add-subadmins.php` used to create new sub-admin accounts is intended to be accessible only by users with administrator privileges. However, access control is enforced only at the UI level and not on the server side.
A sub-admin can directly access the admin-only endpoint and is able to create additional sub-admin accounts, resulting in horizontal and vertical privilege escalation. |
