GHSA-7898-M6PH-PVX5

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-31 21:32 – Updated: 2026-09-01 15:31

Details

The teacher-end interface POST /api/teacher/user/delete/{id} in XueZhiSi Open Source Exam System <= 3.9.0 contains a vertical privilege escalatio vulnerability. This interface accepts a user ID and then executes getUserById(id), setDeleted(true), updateByIdFilter() in sequence, without any validation of whether the current user has the authority to delete the target user. An authenticated teacher user (role=2) can delete an administrator account (role=3), constituting a vertical privilege escalation where a lower-privileged user performs a high-privileged operation.

Severity

8.1 (High)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
