Unauthorized tournament and team creation via CSRF
Published May 15, 2025 · Updated May 16, 2025
CSRF in EKC Tournament Manager before 2.2.2 allows remote attackers to create tournaments or teams when an administrator opens a crafted page. The tournament and team administration pages accept attacker-supplied POST fields with action=new without verifying a CSRF token. A logged-in administrator must open the malicious HTML, after which the forged request inserts tournament or team records.
