Unauthenticated vote tampering through repeated submissions
Published Nov 30, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Race condition in Dash Labs YASR 3.3.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to alter stored ratings through repeated vote submissions. Public sources identify the voting path and repeated acceptance of one visitor's submissions, but do not disclose the precise check-and-use code sequence. No account or user interaction is required; the bounded consequence is unauthorized modification of rating data.
