Official description
Joomla Extension - joomshaper.com - Missing CSRF Token Verification across Administrator AJAX API Endpoints in Easy Store extension 1.0.0-3.0.0 - The administrator ApiController only validated CSRF tokens inside the products() action. All other administrative AJAX endpoints (orders, coupons, media, customers, settings, tags, categories, reviews, and collections) accepted state-changing requests without checking anti-CSRF tokens. An attacker could trick a logged-in administrator into triggering unauthorized state modifications across the store backend. Resolved by implementing global CSRF verification in ApiController::execute() for all state-changing HTTP methods (POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) via Session::checkToken().
Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.
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).
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: no, technical impact: partial).
