High

Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PVote versions prior to 1.9

Description The issue allows remote attackers to change the administrative password and gain privileges. This is achieved by directly calling the "ch info.php" endpoint with the newpass and confirm parameters both set to the new password.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.9, update to version 1.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "ch info.php" endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the newpass and confirm parameters in the affected endpoint until the issue is resolved.
