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 · unedited
Smart Parking Management System from Honding Technology has a Missing Authorization vulnerability, allowing remote attackers with regular privileges to access a specific functionality to create administrator accounts, and subsequently log into the system using those accounts.

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 confidence

Smart Parking Management System from Honding Technology contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows authenticated regular users to access administrative functionality for creating new administrator accounts. This enables privilege escalation where a standard user can create an admin account and gain full system access.

MitigationImplement role-based access control (RBAC) to enforce authorization checks on administrative functions, ensuring only users with administrator privileges can access account creation endpoints. Validate user permissions before executing any privileged operation.

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 Smart Parking Management System installation
    Search for files or directories related to Honding Technology Smart Parking Management System. Check web server logs, application directories, or installed software listings for 'Smart Parking' or 'Honding' components.
    Affected if The Smart Parking Management System from Honding Technology is present in the environment
  2. Locate the account creation endpoint
    Review application source code, API routes, or web application structure for account/user creation functionality. Common paths include /admin/user/create, /user/add, /api/users/new, or similar admin-oriented endpoints.
    Affected if The application contains an account/user creation endpoint accessible within the system
  3. Verify authorization enforcement on account creation
    Inspect the code or configuration handling the account creation endpoint. Look for role-based access control (RBAC) checks that verify the requesting user has administrative privileges before allowing account creation.
    Affected if No role verification or privilege check exists before allowing account creation, or regular authenticated users can trigger the account creation functionality
  4. Test regular user access to admin account creation
    Log in as a non-administrative (regular) user account and attempt to access or invoke the account creation functionality. Observe whether the system allows or rejects the request based on user role.
    Affected if A regular authenticated user can successfully access or execute the account creation function and create new accounts
  5. Check for admin account creation capability for regular users
    Using a regular user session, attempt to create an account with administrative privileges or elevated permissions. Verify whether the system permits creation of admin-level accounts without proper authorization.
    Affected if Regular users can create administrator-level accounts in the system

The environment is affected if the Smart Parking Management System from Honding Technology is installed and regular authenticated users can access or trigger the account creation endpoint without proper admin privilege verification.
