An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-31762 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Webmin Webmin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31762/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31762/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-31762","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31762/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-31762","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fxpr-3h84-j6hp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Webmin server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to create privileged users and execute reverse shells in Webmin, requiring immediate upgrades.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"webmin","vendor":"webmin"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"Webmin 1.973 is affected by Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) to create a privileged user through Webmin's add users feature, and then get a reverse shell through Webmin's running process feature.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2021-04-21","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":8,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-04-21T20:13:06Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/electronicbots/CVE-2021-31762","stars":8,"title":"Exploiting a Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack to creat a new privileged user through the Webmin's add users feature "},{"date":"2021-04-21T20:06:09Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Mesh3l911/CVE-2021-31762","stars":1,"title":"Exploiting a Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack to creat a new privileged user through the Webmin's add users feature"},{"date":"2021-07-14","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"50126","stars":null,"title":"Webmin 1.973 - 'save_user.cgi' Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31762","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"webmin:webmin","products":["webmin:webmin"],"type":"csrf","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31769"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31761"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-04-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Webmin Command Injection","id":"CVE-2019-15107","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2019-08-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2201","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-11-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1196","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-15"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Webmin CGI Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-12828","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-36446","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-35769","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8712","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to create privileged users and execute reverse shells in Webmin, requiring immediate upgrades.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31762/"}
