CVE-2025-63955 — Phpgurukul Student Record System security vulnerability

High CVSS 7.5

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the manage-students.php component of PHPGurukul Student Record System v3.2 allows an attacker to trick an authenticated administrator into submitting a forged request. This leads to the unauthorized deletion of user accounts, causing a Denial of Service (DoS).

Matched remediation archetype

Resource exhaustion and denial of service

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Identify attacker-influenced work factors including input size, nesting, compression, fan-out, regex cost, allocation, recursion, retries, and connection lifetime.
  • Map per-request and shared CPU, memory, disk, descriptor, thread, queue, and downstream-service limits.
  • Determine whether authentication, tenancy, quotas, and rate controls apply before expensive processing begins.

Remediate safely

  • Bound input size, nesting, expansion, work, concurrency, queue depth, retries, and execution time before resource-intensive processing.
  • Release resources on every success, error, cancellation, and timeout path and use backpressure instead of unbounded buffering.
  • Update affected components and add small deterministic tests that assert resource ceilings rather than exhausting a host.
