Summary

CVE-2024-57487 is a medium-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability in Code-Projects Online Car Rental System. Its CVSS base score is 6.5 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked in the top 16% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2024-57487 affects the file upload feature in Code-Projects Online Car Rental System version 1.0. The component fails to validate file extensions or MIME types, enabling unrestricted upload of arbitrary files such as PHP shells. The issue is tracked under CWE-94 with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5 reflecting network-accessible attack conditions that require no privileges or user interaction.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can upload a malicious PHP file directly to the server and then execute operating-system commands through the resulting web shell. This grants partial confidentiality and integrity impact without affecting availability.

The two referenced sources consist of the original project page and a public GitHub repository containing exploit details; neither supplies vendor patches, configuration guidance, or mitigation steps. The associated EPSS score stands at 0.5789 with no reported change from an earlier lower value.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.

Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.

Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

PR.DS-10 none match
prevents

PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.

prevents

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.
