Content deletion via forged backend request
Published Aug 19, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Cross-site request forgery in XunRuiCMS 4.5.6 allows remote attackers to delete CMS content through an authenticated backend user's browser. The content-management deletion endpoint accepts a forged deletion request without effective anti-CSRF validation and moves the selected article to the recycle bin. Exploitation requires an authenticated backend user to visit attacker-controlled content and activate the submitted request; the demonstrated consequence is deletion of selected content.
