CVE-2025-55045

What is this vulnerability?

CVE-2025-55045 is categorized as a critical Application Verification Flaw flaw. Based on our vulnerability intelligence, this issue occurs when the application fails to securely handle untrusted data boundaries.

The update address CSRF vulnerability in MuraCMS through 10.1.10 allows attackers to manipulate user address information through CSRF. The vulnerable cUser...

This architectural defect enables adversaries to bypass intended security controls, directly manipulating the application's execution state or data layer. Immediate strategic intervention is required.

Risk Assessment

Impact on Systems

✅ Unauthorized Access: Flaws in application logic can permit unauthorized interaction with protected APIs.

✅ Data Manipulation: Adversaries may alter critical application states, such as user roles or configurations.

✅ Service Disruption: Improper error handling or unvalidated inputs can lead to resource exhaustion.

How to fix this issue?

Implement the following strategic mitigations immediately to eliminate the attack surface.

1. Defense in Depth Implement multi-layered validation (client-side, API gateway, and server-side).

2. Least Privilege Ensure backend service accounts operate with the absolute minimum rights required.

3. Security Regression Testing Integrate automated semantic security scanning into the deployment pipeline.

Vulnerability Signature

// Generic Application Security Flaw (Node.js)
app.post('/api/update-profile', (req, res) =\> \{
    // DANGEROUS: Mass Assignment / Object Injection
    // Attacker can pass \{ "isAdmin": true, "email": "..." \}
    User.update(\{ id: req.user.id \}, req.body);
    
    // SECURED: Explicitly select permitted fields
    const \{ email, displayName, bio \} = req.body;

Vulnerability Code Signature

Attack Data Flow

Vulnerable Code Pattern

// ❌ VULNERABLE: Missing CSRF token validation
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {
    // Taint sink: state change without anti-forgery check
    update_user_email($_POST['email']);
    echo "Email updated successfully.";
}

Secure Code Pattern

// ✅ SECURE: Anti-forgery token validation
session_start();
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {
    if (!hash_equals($_SESSION['csrf_token'], $_POST['csrf_token'])) {
        die("CSRF token validation failed.");
    }
    // Sanitized state change
    update_user_email($_POST['email']);
    echo "Email updated successfully.";
}
