CVE-2026-114439 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.3 · Published 2026-10-21

PHP Travel Agency System is an open-source web application for managing travel bookings and agency operations. A critical flaw in the session authentication handler allows unauthenticated users to view and manipulate sensitive admin panel data including customer records, employee information, payment details, and administrator credentials without logging in. An attacker can read all database records and perform unauthorized actions like creating fake accounts, deleting records, or uploading malicious files.

## How to fix


Add exit; or die; immediately after the header('location:login.php') redirect in admin/session.php, and add proper session validation to admin/delete.php and any other admin pages lacking authentication checks. Restrict administrative paths to authenticated users only via server-side access controls if possible.

## Technical details

The session verification in admin/session.php uses header('location:login.php') without calling exit(), allowing PHP execution to continue and render sensitive content despite the redirect header. Additionally, admin/delete.php contains no session check whatsoever, enabling unauthenticated deletion of database records. An attacker can make direct HTTP requests to admin pages to retrieve sensitive data (customers, employees, payments, admin accounts) and perform modifications without any authentication requirement.
