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

CVE-2025-69559 is a critical file upload vulnerability in code-projects Computer Book Store 1.0, specifically within the admin_add.php component. Classified under CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type), it enables attackers to upload malicious files without proper validation. The issue was published on 2026-01-27T17:16:09.760 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for severe impacts across confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Exploitation involves uploading arbitrary files via admin_add.php, which could lead to remote code execution, server compromise, or persistence mechanisms, given the high impact ratings on all three CIA triad elements.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.

Least functionality restricts the file types and automatic processing capabilities the system will accept.

SC-18 Mobile Code partial match

Mobile-code controls define, authorize, and block unacceptable uploaded code before automatic processing occurs.

finds

Configuration and acceptance testing verify that file-upload handling enforces allowed types and does not permit dangerous content to be stored or executed.

prevents

Secure-coding guidelines and security testing explicitly address restrictions on allowed file types and upload handling, reducing the risk that dangerous file uploads are accepted without validation.

prevents

Mandated testing for malicious content and known vulnerabilities reduces the likelihood that an outsourced component will contain or accept dangerous file types that could later be uploaded or executed.

mitigates

Application allow-listing and pre-use scanning of received files directly blocks the introduction of executable content that has not been vetted, eliminating the primary vector for unrestricted dangerous file uploads.
