CVE-2025-5132: Cross-Site Request Forgery in Tmall Demo
A vulnerability was found in Tmall Demo up to 20250505. It has been rated as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file tmall/admin/account/logout. The manipulation leads to cross-site request forgery. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. This product does not use versioning. This is why information about affected and unaffected releases are unavailable. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-5132 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability identified in the Tmall Demo product, specifically affecting versions up to 20250505. The vulnerability resides in the processing of the endpoint tmall/admin/account/logout. CSRF vulnerabilities allow an attacker to trick an authenticated user into submitting a forged request to a web application, potentially causing the user to perform unwanted actions without their consent. In this case, the attacker could remotely initiate a logout action on behalf of the user. The vulnerability does not require any privileges or authentication to exploit, and no user interaction beyond visiting a malicious page is necessary. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.3, indicating a low severity level. The vector details show that the attack is network accessible (AV:N), requires no privileges (PR:N), no authentication (AT:N), but does require user interaction (UI:P). The impact on confidentiality is none, integrity is low, and availability is none. The vendor has not responded to the disclosure, and no patches or versioning information are available, complicating mitigation efforts. The exploit has been publicly disclosed but is not known to be actively exploited in the wild. The lack of versioning and vendor response suggests potential challenges in identifying affected deployments and applying fixes.
Potential Impact
For European organizations using the Tmall Demo product, this CSRF vulnerability could lead to unauthorized logout actions, disrupting user sessions and potentially causing denial of service to legitimate users. While the direct impact on confidentiality and data integrity is minimal, the forced logout could be leveraged as part of a broader attack strategy, such as session fixation or social engineering campaigns. Organizations relying on Tmall Demo for administrative or user session management may experience operational disruptions. The absence of vendor patches and versioning complicates timely remediation, increasing exposure duration. Additionally, if attackers chain this vulnerability with others, it could escalate the overall impact. Given the low severity, the immediate risk is limited, but persistent exploitation could degrade user trust and system availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Given the lack of vendor patches and versioning, European organizations should implement compensating controls to mitigate this CSRF vulnerability. These include: 1) Implementing anti-CSRF tokens in all state-changing requests, especially logout endpoints, to ensure requests originate from legitimate users. 2) Enforcing SameSite cookie attributes (preferably 'Strict' or 'Lax') to restrict cross-origin requests carrying authentication cookies. 3) Utilizing Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to limit the domains that can execute scripts or send requests. 4) Monitoring and logging unusual logout patterns to detect potential exploitation attempts. 5) Educating users about the risks of clicking on untrusted links or visiting suspicious websites while authenticated. 6) If feasible, isolating the Tmall Demo application behind a web application firewall (WAF) configured to detect and block CSRF attack patterns. 7) Considering migration to alternative products or custom development if vendor support remains absent. These measures collectively reduce the attack surface and mitigate exploitation risks despite the absence of direct patches.
