Hoteldruid: Cross-Site Request Forgery

CVE-2025-25748 is a high-severity cross-site request forgery vulnerability in Hoteldruid from Digitaldruid, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.3 out of 10. It can be exploited with local access to the system by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. Affected Hoteldruid versions: 3.0.7. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.42% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

A CSRF vulnerability in the gestione_utenti.php endpoint of HotelDruid 3.0.7 allows attackers to perform unauthorized actions (e.g., modifying user passwords) on behalf of authenticated users by exploiting the lack of origin or referrer validation and the absence of CSRF tokens. NOTE: this is disputed because there is an id_sessione CSRF token.

The underlying weakness: Cross-Site Request Forgery

The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, use anti-CSRF packages such as the OWASP CSRFGuard. Another example is the ESAPI Session Management control, which includes a component for CSRF.
  • Ensure that the application is free of cross-site scripting issues (CWE-79), because most CSRF defenses can be bypassed using attacker-controlled script.
  • Generate a unique nonce for each form, place the nonce into the form, and verify the nonce upon receipt of the form. Be sure that the nonce is not predictable (CWE-330).
