Description

A vulnerability has been discovered in MeshCMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks.

The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without making proper validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. add an administrative user by tricking an administrator into visiting a malicious web site while being logged-in to the application.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.5. Other versions may also be affected.


Solution
Do not browse untrusted web sites or follow untrusted links while being logged-in to the application.
