Technical details
An incorrect access control vulnerability (CWE-284) exists in SourceCodester Online Student Clearance System 1.0 due to a logic flaw in session validation. The application fails to properly verify the authorization level of a user when processing sensitive requests, such as adding user information or modifying database records. A remote attacker with low-level authenticated access can exploit this by capturing an administrative request and replacing the session identifiers (cookies) with their own. This allows the attacker to successfully execute high-privileged operations without possessing administrative credentials. A proof-of-concept demonstrates that administrative endpoints can be reached and manipulated by standard user accounts.
