Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote user to manipulate evaluation data and spoof feedback authorship.

The vulnerability exists due to improperly controlled modification of dynamically-determined object attributes in the POST /api/v1/evaluations/feedback endpoint when processing feedback creation requests. A remote user can submit a specially crafted request with extra fields such as user_id to manipulate evaluation data and spoof feedback authorship.

The issue is caused by FeedbackForm accepting unexpected fields via extra='allow' and by insert_new_feedback() merging form data after server-derived values, allowing request-supplied fields to overwrite user_id, id, and version.
