I'm a Cybersecurity Engineer - Intern focused on building defensive systems that are practical, scalable, and testable. I work across penetration testing, vulnerability validation, and secure engineering practices.

I specialize in Linux-first security workflows, web and infrastructure testing, and research-driven remediation while learning through hands-on delivery in real-world environments. My approach is simple: verify everything, automate what repeats, and keep systems understandable.

CVE

Arbitrary API Token Creation

InvenTree Security Advisory

8.3/10

Impact

Any authenticated InvenTree user can create a valid API token attributed to any other user in the system — including administrators and superusers — by supplying the target's user ID in the user field of a POST /api/user/tokens/ request. The returned token is immediately usable for full API authentication as the target user, from any network location, with no further interaction required.
