Administrative email sending via unchecked cross-site request
Published Dec 9, 2025 · Updated Apr 7, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in OpenBMCS 2.4 allows remote attackers to send email as an administrator through a crafted web page. The core/sendFeedback.php handler accepts subject, message, and email fields in a POST request without validating that the request originated from the authenticated interface. Exploitation requires a logged-in user to visit an attacker-controlled site, after which the browser submits the request with that user's session privileges.
