Folder metadata modification via missing CSRF validation
Published Jun 18, 2026 · Updated Jun 18, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Cotonti 1.0.0 PFS allows remote attackers to modify an authenticated user's folder metadata. The a=update path in modules/pfs/inc/pfs.editfolder.php writes title, description, and public or gallery flags without calling cot_check_xg() to validate the anti-CSRF token. Exploitation requires an authenticated user to visit an attacker-controlled page, and it can expose a private folder by changing its public flag.
