[KAPDA::#52] – PHP-Post 1.0 Cookie Modification Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
PHP-Post contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to gain administrative privileges. PHP-Post doesn't properly authenticate remote users if auto login is on! By editing the values of the cookie, an attacker can change their privilege from a regular user to administrator and submit it back to the site.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the authentication process is properly implemented and that the cookie values are properly validated.
