Technical details

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in Twitter-Clone version 1.0 and earlier due to a lack of anti-CSRF tokens in the tweet deletion routine. The vulnerable component, tweetdel.php, processes deletion requests via POST parameters without verifying the intent of the authenticated user. An attacker can exploit this by hosting a malicious HTML page with a hidden form that targets tweetdel.php with a specific tweet ID. When an authenticated user visits the attacker's page, the form is automatically submitted via JavaScript, causing the application to delete the specified post from the user's account. This vulnerability requires the victim to be authenticated and to interact with a malicious link or site.
