DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in PBBoard, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery
attacks.
The application's web interface allows users to perform certain
actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to
verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change an
administrator's password by tricking a logged in administrator into
visiting a malicious web site.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.1.4. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Do not browse untrusted websites or follow untrusted links while
logged in to the application.
