CVE-2021-32632Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Configuration modification via unprotected state-changing requests

Published May 20, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Cross-site request forgery in Pajbot before 1.52 allows remote attackers to modify bot settings through an authenticated hoster's browser. Banphrase, Command, and Timer removal endpoints accept state-changing GET requests without a CSRF token, so a hidden iframe submits them with the hoster's session. Exploitation requires a hoster with an active administrative session to load attacker-controlled content; the resulting changes are limited to bot configuration and moderation data.
