Comment-like count manipulation via missing uniqueness enforcement
Published Dec 2, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Improper action uniqueness enforcement in Thecosy IceCMS 2.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to manipulate comment-like counts. The /Websquare/likeClickComment/ handler accepts repeated like actions without enforcing that each user performs the action only once. A low-privileged account and a difficult request sequence are required, and the demonstrated consequence is limited to content-integrity modification.
