Technical details

A cross-site request forgery (CWE-352) vulnerability exists in Edgewall Trac versions 0.10 and earlier. The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to craft malicious web pages that, when visited by a Trac user, execute unauthorized actions in the user's context without CSRF token protection. The attack requires user interaction (victim must visit a malicious site while authenticated to Trac) but no authentication from the attacker. The vulnerability was fixed in version 0.10.1.
