CVE-2025-10424
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was determined in 1000projects Online Student Project Report Submission and Evaluation System 1.0. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /admin/controller/faculty_controller.php. This manipulation of the argument new_image causes unrestricted upload. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.
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 · high confidenceUnrestricted file upload vulnerability in /admin/controller/faculty_controller.php where the 'new_image' parameter lacks proper validation, allowing remote attackers to upload arbitrary files including malicious PHP scripts by bypassing file type checks.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the application versionLook for version.php, README, or footer files in the web root that display the software version. Also check any installer files or configuration files for version strings.Affected if The installed version is 1.0 of 1000projects Online Student Project Report Submission And Evaluation System
-
Verify vulnerable file existsCheck for the presence of /admin/controller/faculty_controller.php in the web root directory.Affected if The file /admin/controller/faculty_controller.php exists on the server
-
Check if admin interface is accessibleAttempt to access the /admin/ path to confirm the admin panel is reachable. Look for login page or faculty controller endpoints.Affected if The admin panel is accessible without additional authentication barriers or the faculty controller is directly reachable
-
Inspect upload parameter handlingExamine the faculty_controller.php file for the 'new_image' parameter and verify whether file type/extension validation exists before the upload handling code.Affected if The 'new_image' parameter is processed without proper file extension or MIME type validation checks
-
Check uploaded files directoryLocate the uploads or images directory used by the application and verify if it is within the web root and allows script execution.Affected if Uploaded files are stored in a web-accessible directory that permits PHP or script execution
You are affected if you are running version 1.0 of this application and the vulnerable faculty_controller.php file exists with the unrestricted new_image upload functionality accessible.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement strict allowlist-based file validation for extensions and MIME types, store uploads outside the web root or disable script execution in upload directories, and rename uploaded files to prevent executable extensions.
