CVE-2023-46699Network attack vector

Settings modification via forged cross-site requests

Published Dec 26, 2023 · Updated Sep 12, 2024

Cross-site request forgery in GROWI before 6.0.0 allows remote attackers to change an authenticated user's settings via a malicious page. The personal-settings workflow accepts external-site state-changing requests, but public advisories do not identify the handler or missing request-validation check. Exploitation requires the victim to remain logged in and view attacker-controlled content, and the demonstrated consequence is unauthorized settings modification.
