Jspwiki Cross-Site Request Forgery

A carefully crafted invocation on the Image plugin could trigger an CSRF vulnerability on Apache JSPWiki before 2.11.3, which could allow a group privilege escalation of the attacker's account. Further examination of this issue established that it could also be used to modify the email associated with the attacked account, and then a reset password request from the login page.

A carefully crafted request on UserPreferences.jsp could trigger an CSRF vulnerability on Apache JSPWiki before 2.11.3, which could allow the attacker to modify the email associated with the attacked account, and then a reset password request from the login page. (2022-08-04, CVE-2022-28731)

Apache JSPWiki user preferences form is vulnerable to CSRF attacks, which can lead to account takeover. Apache JSPWiki users should upgrade to 2.11.2 or later. (2022-02-25, CVE-2022-24947)

The absence of Anti-CSRF tokens may lead to a Cross-Site Request Forgery attack that can result in executing a specific application action as another logged in user, e.g. steal their account by changing their email and password or silently adding a new admin user account when executed from the administrator account.

The attacker may copy one of your web application forms, e.g. email/password change form.

The webpage will contain a form with the exact set of fields as the original application but with input values already provided and the submit button replaced with a Javascript code causing auto-submission. When the page is accessed the form will be immediately submitted and page contents replaced with a valid content or a redirect to your original application.

One of your application users who is already logged in can be then tricked to navigate to such malicious page e.g. by clicking a link in a phishing email, and the pre-populated form content will be submitted to your application like it would be submitted by your user.
