Ushahidi · Ushahidi Platform · CVE-2012-3472
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Ushahidi Platform versions prior to 2.5
**Description**
The issue concerns the email API in the Ushahidi Platform, which does not require authentication. This allows remote attackers to list, delete, or organize messages via a GET request to the API endpoint.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 2.5, consider requiring authentication for the email API to prevent unauthorized access. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the email API endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
