Unauthenticated administrator creation via crafted registration
Published Sep 8, 2023 · Updated Sep 26, 2024
Improper access control in Crypto Currency Tracker before 9.5 allows remote attackers to create administrator accounts via crafted POST requests. The User Registration page accepts an unauthenticated POST as an administrator registration rather than restricting public registration to ordinary users. No existing account or user interaction is required, and the resulting account has administrative control over the application.
