Administrative action manipulation via missing anti-framing headers
Published Jul 6, 2026 · Updated Jul 6, 2026
Clickjacking in Ajenti 2.2.13 and earlier allows remote attackers to induce unintended actions through the login and administrative UI. The run_response path in ajenti-core/aj/http.py forwards handler headers to WSGI start_response() without adding X-Frame-Options or CSP frame-ancestors. Exploitation requires an authenticated Ajenti user to open an attacker-controlled page and interact with the disguised frame; resulting actions remain bounded by that user's permissions.
