Opal vulnerable to CSRF protection bypass
Summary
Opal vulnerable to CSRF protection bypass
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Opal is OBiBa’s core database application for biobanks or epidemiological studies. Prior to version 5.1.1, the protections against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) were insufficient application-wide. The referrer header is checked, and if it is invalid, the server returns 403. However, the referrer header can be dropped from CSRF requests using ``, effectively bypassing this protection. Version 5.1.1 contains a patch for the issue.
