Email address modification via GET settings action
Published Sep 22, 2022 · Updated May 22, 2025
CSRF in Rdiffweb before 2.4.7 allows remote attackers to change an authenticated user's email address through a crafted request. The preferences controller processes set_profile_info from request parameters without requiring POST, so a cross-site GET invokes the update. Exploitation requires an authenticated user to load attacker-controlled content, and the demonstrated consequence is an unauthorized email-address change.
