MetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FlexCMS versions 3.2.1 and earlier
Description The issue allows remote attackers to hijack user authentication for requests that change account settings via a request to "index.php/profile-edit-save" or hijack administrator authentication for requests that add a new page via a request to "admin/pages-new-save".
Recommendations For FlexCMS versions 3.2.1 and earlier, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "index.php/profile-edit-save" and "admin/pages-new-save" API endpoints until a patch is available. Avoid using these endpoints in a way that could allow unauthorized changes to account settings or addition of new pages.
