Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as Improper Authorization (CWE-285) and Incorrect Privilege Assignment (CWE-266) within the 'admin/deleteform.php' script. The root cause is a complete absence of session validation or authentication checks (such as session_start()) before processing database operations. An attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP GET or POST request with a 'sid' parameter to the vulnerable endpoint to execute a SQL DELETE statement against the 'student' table. This allows for unauthenticated, remote, arbitrary data deletion. As of the advisory date, the vendor has not responded to the issue report, and no official patch is available.
