Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site request forgery attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of the HTTP request origin on the user's profile information page. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page and perform arbitrary actions on behalf of the victim on the vulnerable website, such as modify user's enrolled information, e.g. email and mobile phone.

Attackers could use the reset password function and control the system to send the authentication code back to the channel that the attackers own.
