2. Overview
MyLittleForum is forum software written in PHP. In version 2.3.6.1, it is
vulnerable to cross site request forgery. An attacker could exploit this issue
to add new users or change the status of existing users to administrator if a
victim visits a website containing a specifically crafted payload while logged
into MyLittleForum.
3. Details
CVSS: Medium 5.1 AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Description: There is no CSRF protection, allowing an attacker to perform
actions for a victim if the victim visits an attacker controlled website while
logged in.
