Summary

CVE-2025-1163 is a medium-severity Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer (CWE-119) vulnerability in Code-Projects Vehicle Parking Management System. Its CVSS base score is 4.8 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 38th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

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.

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

CVE-2025-1163 is a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting the login function within the Authentication component of the Vehicle Parking Management System 1.0, developed by code-projects. The issue arises from manipulation of the username argument, classified under CWEs-119 (Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer), CWE-121 (Stack-based Buffer Overflow), and CWE-787 (Out-of-bounds Write). It was published on 2025-02-11 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.3 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L), despite being described as critical.

The vulnerability requires local access with low privileges to exploit, involving low attack complexity and no user interaction. A successful attack can result in limited impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially allowing an attacker to cause a denial of service, disclose sensitive information, or modify data through the buffer overflow.

References point to VulDB entries (ctiid.295066, id.295066, submit.494008) for details, an exploit disclosure in a GitHub-hosted PDF (binary1.pdf), and the original project site at code-projects.org. No specific patches or mitigations are detailed in the provided information, but the public exploit disclosure indicates practitioners should isolate or update the system if possible.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and analysis can discover stack-buffer overflows before deployment.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from exceeding stack buffer bounds.

Memory-protection mechanisms limit the ability to execute injected code after a stack overflow.

Requiring documented secure-development standards and tools can mandate bounds-checked coding practices that avoid the weakness.

Secure engineering principles require memory-safe design and coding that structurally avoids buffer-boundary violations.
