Authentication disabling via cross-origin configuration write

Published Jan 30, 2026 · Updated Jan 30, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in midgetspy Sick Beard 0.1 allows remote attackers to disable web authentication through a crafted form. The /config/general/saveGeneral handler accepts a cross-origin POST that stores empty web_username and web_password configuration values. An authenticated Sick Beard browser session must load attacker-controlled content; after a server restart, the cleared credentials remove web login protection.
