Insecure Grade Management - An Intentionally Vulnerable Rails Application

Insecure Grade Management is an intentionally vulnerable grade management application that can be used for teaching security testing and security programming.

Application Scenario

Insecure Grade Management implements a simplistic system for managing university grades. Students can view their grades for their lectures. Moreover, students can add comments to the grades that can be viewed by lecturers. Thus, the applications knows three roles: admins, lecturers, and students.

  • Admins can create new students, lecturers, and other admins. Admins can create new lectures, held by any lecturer. Admins can also create, view, and edit new grades for all lectures and students and can create, view, and edit comments.
  • Lecturers can create new students. They can also create new lectures that are being held by them. Lecturers can can view grades for all students, but only enter new grades for their own students. Lecturers can see comments for all grades, but can not change any.
  • Students can view their grades. For their convenience, they have the ability to filter their grade list by a lecturer name.
