Published: 29 January 2025
Description
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Security Summary
CVE-2024-54851 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability affecting Teedy versions 1.12 and earlier, stemming from the absence of CSRF protection mechanisms. This flaw, classified under CWE-352, carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility, low complexity, lack of required privileges, and potential for significant impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
An unauthenticated attacker (PR:N) can exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious webpage or resource that, when visited by an authenticated Teedy user (UI:R), triggers unauthorized requests to the Teedy application. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to perform actions on behalf of the victim user, potentially leading to high-impact outcomes such as data modification, deletion, or unauthorized access, depending on the user's privileges within the Teedy instance.
