Password change via forged reset request
Published Sep 30, 2025 · Updated Sep 30, 2025
Cross-site request forgery in PAD CMS 1.2.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to change a logged-in user's password. The reset-password function processes an attacker-supplied cross-origin POST, although CERT Polska has not disclosed the missing request-validity check. Exploitation requires a logged-in user to visit the crafted page and affects the www, bip, and www+bip templates.
