Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), where 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. In Yetiforce/yetiforce crm, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Versions of yetiforce 6.3.0 and prior are subject to privilege escalation via a cross site request forgery bug. This allows an attacker to create a new admin account even with SameSite: Strict enabled. This vulnerability can be exploited by any user on the system including guest users.
