Short explanation
ConvertX prior to version 0.18.0 lacks CSRF protection on the /delete/{id} endpoint. This vulnerability allows an attacker to cause unauthorized loss of converted-file history by tricking an authenticated user into visiting malicious content that triggers an HTTP GET deletion request.
When an authenticated user visits attacker-controlled content, the browser transmits the user session cookie, triggering the deletion of targeted jobs and resulting in unauthorized file history loss.
What should be done?
- Upgrade ConvertX to version 0.18.0
- Follow vendor security advisories
Chain of evidence and sources
ConvertX, 0.18.0 öncesi sürümlerde /delete/{id} uç noktasında CSRF koruması içermez.
Zafiyet, sürüm 0.18.0 ile giderilmiştir.
Show the technical text from the sources
ConvertX is a self-hosted file conversion service. Prior to 0.18.0, the /delete/{id} endpoint uses HTTP GET for permanent deletion without CSRF protection. If an authenticated user visits attacker-controlled content that requests /delete/{id}, the browser sends the user session cookie and the request deletes the targeted job, resulting in unauthorized loss of converted-file history. This issue is fixed in version 0.18.0.
