Automated description summarized from trusted sources.

CVE-2025-46191 is an arbitrary file upload vulnerability found in SourceCodester Client Database Management System version 1.0. Specifically, the vulnerability exists in the `user_payment_update.php` file, where unauthenticated users can upload arbitrary files via the `uploaded_file_cancelled` field. The vulnerability stems from the lack of proper file extension checks, MIME type validation, and authentication. This allows attackers to upload executable PHP files to a web-accessible directory (`/files/`) and execute arbitrary commands remotely by accessing the uploaded script. This results in unauthenticated remote code execution.
