HighCVSS 8.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Elevated risk59th percentile - higher than 59% of all known CVEs
Summary
An unrestricted file rename vulnerability in the /api/create-user component of bookcars v8.3. Authenticated attackers can move files from temporary storage to arbitrary locations, enabling access to sensitive files, overwriting critical files, and remote code execution.
Risk Assessment
Risk of full server compromise by an authenticated attacker, including data theft and malicious code execution.
Recommendation
Update bookcars to a patched version or apply access restrictions to the API.

Original NVD description (English source)
An unrestricted file rename vulnerability in the /api/create-user component of bookcars v8.3 allows authenticated attackers to leverage directory traversal sequences to move arbitrary files from temporary storage to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem. This enables unauthorized access to sensitive files, the overwriting of critical application files, and remote code execution (RCE).
