Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vulnerability CVE-2025-45805 is a critical security flaw affecting the phpgurukul Doctor Appointment Management System 1.0. It allows an authenticated doctor user to inject arbitrary JavaScript code into their profile name, which is later executed without proper sanitization when a user visits the website to book an appointment. This poses a significant risk to users and the system itself, as it opens the door to potential system compromises and data leakage.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2025-45805
\nSeverity: High (7.6 CVSS Score)
\nAttack Vector: Web based
\nPrivileges Required: Low (Authenticated doctor user)
\nUser Interaction: Required
\nImpact: System compromise or data leakage<\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

phpgurukul Doctor Appointment Management System | 1.0<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

The exploit takes advantage of the lack of proper sanitization of the doctor’s profile name in the Doctor Appointment Management System. An authenticated doctor user can insert JavaScript code into their profile name. When a user visits the website to book an appointment, the injected JavaScript code is executed, potentially leading to system compromise or data leakage.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

Consider the following conceptual example of how this vulnerability might be exploited. This is a pseudocode representation of the malicious JavaScript injection:<\/p>\n

PUT \/doctor\/profile HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/json\nAuthorization: Bearer doctorAuthToken\n{ \"profile_name\": \"<script>malicious_code_here<\/script>\" }<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this example, `malicious_code_here` is the arbitrary JavaScript code that the attacker wants to run on the client’s browser when they visit the doctor’s profile. This could be used to steal sensitive information or perform other malicious activities.<\/p>\n
Mitigation Guidance<\/strong><\/p>\n
Users of phpgurukul Doctor Appointment Management System 1.0 are advised to install the vendor’s patch as soon as it becomes available. As an interim measure, employing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can provide some level of protection by detecting and blocking attempts to exploit this vulnerability. Regularly reviewing and updating security policies can also help to minimize the risk of future attacks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
