Openmage Long Term Support Cross-Site Request Forgery

OpenMage LTS before versions 19.4.6 and 20.0.2 allows attackers to circumvent the `fromkey protection` in the Admin Interface and increases the attack surface for Cross Site Request Forgery attacks. This issue is related to Adobe's CVE-2020-9690. It is patched in versions 19.4.6 and 20.0.2. (2020-08-20, CVE-2020-15151)

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.
