CVE-2018-14519
PHP vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability was discovered in Kirby CMS version 2.5.12. The vulnerability affects the delete page functionality, allowing remote attackers to craft malicious requests that could trick users into performing unwanted actions (Zaran Blog, Exploit DB).

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the delete page functionality where the application fails to implement proper CSRF protection mechanisms. This allows attackers to create crafted HTTP requests that can trigger page deletion actions when visited by authenticated users. The exploit can be executed by creating a malicious HTTP page with delete/add options and hosting it on a server (Exploit DB).

Impact

If successfully exploited, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized deletion or addition of pages in the CMS. The impact includes potential data loss and disruption of website content management (Zaran Blog).

Mitigation and workarounds

The recommended fix is to implement anti-CSRF tokens in the application code to prevent unauthorized requests. This security measure would ensure that only legitimate requests from the application's interface are processed (Zaran Blog).
