## Description
    
    Unifiedtransform v2.X is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. Any user (students and teachers) can access and modify student records via the /students/edit/{id} endpoints. This functionality intended exclusively for administrative use. Exploiting this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized data manipulation and privilege escalation.
    
    Vendor: [Unifiedtransform](https://github.com/changeweb/Unifiedtransform)
    
    
    ## Product
    
    A school management Software
    v2.X
    
    ---
    
    ## Affected components
    
    Total Access Control Mechanism which is responsible for enforcing user permissions and roles.
    Route: GET /students/edit/{id}
    Controller: UserController
    Method: editStudents()
    
    And all other endpoints and functionalities related to editing student profiles.
    
    ## PoC/Attack Vector
    
    **Step 1:** Install the application as instructed in the official GitHub repository, and log in using the default admin credentials. ([email protected]:password)
    
    **Step 2:** Create a school session and add both teachers and students as per the instructions provided in the repository.
    
    **Step 3:** Log in to the application as a Teacher or Student.
    
    **Step 4:** Navigate to the endpoint:  
    /students/edit/{id}
    
    ID=1 is reserved for the Admin.
    IDs 2, 3, etc., are assigned to Teachers.
    IDs following those (e.g., 4, 5, ...) are assigned to Students.
    (For example, if you create 2 teachers and 2 students, then ID=2 will be Teacher 1, ID=3 will be Teacher 2, ID=4 will be Student 1, and ID=5 will be Student 2.)
    
    **Step 5:** Change the details and click on update.
    
    ---
