| Title | PHPGurukul Hostel Management System 3.0 Improper Access Controls |
|---|
| Description | PHPGurukul Hostel Management System uses a single PHP session identifier for both the student and administrator portals. The administrator authorization check only verifies that the session identifier is non-empty; it does not verify that the authenticated account is an administrator. Because the student login and administrator login both assign their numeric user ID to the same `$_SESSION['id']` variable, any authenticated student can request administrative pages directly and be treated as an administrator.
