Technical details

The POST /admin/api/update-database endpoint executes database migrations without validating a CSRF token, relying only on the CONFIGURATION_EDIT permission check. An unauthenticated attacker on the network can forge a cross-site request targeting a logged-in user with appropriate permissions, causing unintended database migrations. The vulnerability requires user interaction (the victim must visit the attacker's page while authenticated) but has high availability impact.
