Technical details

The vulnerability is a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) flaw affecting multiple administrative state-changing endpoints in the application. The root cause is the lack of anti-CSRF token validation and insufficient HTTP method restrictions; several destructive actions are exposed as GET requests (e.g., Manager/delete, Nav/delete, Vote/delete, Vote/first), and POST endpoints similarly accept requests without CSRF protection. An attacker can exploit this by hosting malicious HTML on a different origin that, when loaded by an authenticated administrator, triggers state-changing requests using the victim's session cookie. The attack requires the target user to be logged in with administrative privileges but does not require additional user interaction beyond visiting a malicious page. There is no indication of an available patch; the project maintainer was notified through a GitHub issue but has not responded.
