#BuG: Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) and Account Takeover
#BuG_Author: SoSPiro
#CVE: CVE-2024-3139

# Vulnerable code section:

if(!empty($_FILES['img']['tmp_name'])){
if(!is_dir(base_app."uploads/avatars"))
mkdir(base_app."uploads/avatars");
$ext = pathinfo($_FILES['img']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$fname = "uploads/avatars/$id.png"; // The $id value is directly used in the file path
// Rest of the code
}


# Vulnerability Description:

This vulnerability exists in the section of code responsible for handling file uploads. The $id variable, obtained from user input ($_POST), is utilized directly in constructing the file path without appropriate validation or authorization checks, leading to both IDOR and account takeover vulnerabilities. This allows an attacker to manipulate the $id parameter to access and modify files of other users, including administrators.
