Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Authentication bypass vulnerability in CodeAstro House Rental Management System 1.0 affecting booking.php, owner.php, and tenant.php files. The application fails to enforce proper authentication checks on certain functionalities, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to access sensitive operations. The public disclosure of this vulnerability increases exploitation risk.

MitigationImplement proper authentication enforcement across all affected PHP files (booking.php, owner.php, tenant.php) and conduct access control verification across the entire application. Consider adding session validation and role-based access controls.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify if CodeAstro House Rental Management System is installed
    Locate the application web directory and look for PHP files associated with the house rental system. Check for presence of the typical application structure including the three affected files: booking.php, owner.php, and tenant.php.
    Affected if The application files exist in the web directory and any of the three vulnerable PHP files (booking.php, owner.php, tenant.php) are present.
  2. Confirm the installed version is 1.0
    Check the application for a version identifier. Look in README files, configuration files, or the main index.php for a version string. Compare against the affected version range.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0.
  3. Verify authentication enforcement on affected endpoints
    Attempt to access booking.php, owner.php, and tenant.php directly via HTTP request without providing valid credentials. Check if the files return sensitive content or functional pages without requiring login.
    Affected if The affected files are accessible and return functional content or sensitive data without any authentication token, session, or login redirect.
  4. Inspect source code for authentication logic gaps
    Open booking.php, owner.php, and tenant.php in a text editor. Search for session validation functions, authentication checks, or include statements that verify user identity before allowing access to functionality.
    Affected if The PHP files lack proper session validation checks at the beginning of the script or do not redirect unauthenticated users to a login page.

A user is affected if CodeAstro House Rental Management System version 1.0 is installed with the vulnerable PHP files (booking.php, owner.php, tenant.php) accessible and lacking proper authentication enforcement.
