Administrator account creation via forged privileged requests
Published Oct 27, 2022 · Updated Jul 9, 2026
CSRF in dzzoffice 2.02.1_SC_UTF8 allows remote attackers to create accounts and grant administrator rights through a logged-in administrator. The orguser edituser handler accepts attacker-supplied accountadd and accountedit POST data without rejecting cross-origin requests. An administrator must be signed in and load attacker-controlled HTML; the resulting requests create an account and assign it to the administrator group.
