CVE-2014-5516  
===================  
"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection bypass" (CWE-352) vulnerability   
in "KonaKart Storefront Application" Enterprise Java eCommerce product

===================  
DS Data Systems (UK) Ltd.  
  
  
Product  
===================

Affected versions  
===================

Patch  
===================  
The vendor has released a XSRF fix as part of version 7.3.0.0 at  
http://www.konakart.com/downloads/ver-7-3-0-0-whats-new  
  
  
Reported by  
===================  
This issue was reported to the vendor by Christian Schneider (@cschneider4711)   
following a responsible disclosure process.  
  
  
Severity  
===================  
Medium  
  
  
Description  
===================  
The existing CSRF protection token was checked for every POST request  
properly. When modifying the request from POST method to GET method   
all state-changing actions worked as well, but the CSRF token protection   
was no longer enforced, allowing CSRF attacks.  
  
  
Escalation potential  
====================  
Exploitation demonstration was responsibly provided along with the vulnerability   
report to the vendor, which changed a victim's mail address (using the CSRF   
protection bypass) to an attacker-supplied mail address, allowing a successful   
reset of victim's account password by the attacker.
