Subject: ocPoral CMS 8.x | Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Vulnerability

1. OVERVIEW

ocPoral CMS 8.x and lower versions are  vulnerable to Cross-site
Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF).


2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

ocPortal is the website Content Management System (a CMS) for building
and maintaining a dynamic website. ocPortal's powerful feature-set
means there's always a way to accomplish your vision. Not only does
ocPortal's CMS have all the features you'd expect: for instance photo
galleries, news, file downloads and community forums/chats, but it
does so whilst meeting the highest accessibility and professional
standards. It is also smart enough to go beyond page management, to
automatically handle search engine optimisation, and provide
aggressive hack attack prevention.


3. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION

ocPoral CMS 8.x and lower versions contain a flaw that allows a remote
Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF) attack. The flaw exists
because the application does not require multiple steps or explicit
confirmation for sensitive transactions for majority of administrator
functions such as adding new user, downgrading security
settings,..etc. By using a crafted URL, an attacker may trick the
victim into visiting to his web page to take advantage of the trust
relationship between the authenticated victim and the application.
Such an attack could trick the victim into executing arbitrary
commands in the context of their session with the application, without
further prompting or verification.


4. VERSIONS AFFECTED

Tested on version 8.1.2


5. PROOF-OF-CONCEPT/EXPLOIT

The following CSRF payload would add new admin user.
