CVE-2025-60113 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability identified in the grooni Groovy Menu product, affecting versions up to and including 1.4.3. CSRF vulnerabilities occur when an attacker tricks an authenticated user into submitting a forged request to a web application, causing the application to perform unwanted actions on behalf of the user without their consent. In this case, the Groovy Menu component lacks sufficient protections against CSRF attacks, allowing an attacker to potentially induce state-changing actions by exploiting the trust a web application places in the user's browser. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3, indicating a medium severity level. The vector string (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) shows that the attack can be performed remotely over the network without privileges, requires low attack complexity, no privileges, but does require user interaction (such as clicking a malicious link). The impact is limited to integrity loss (unauthorized modification of data or state) without affecting confidentiality or availability. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-352, which specifically addresses CSRF issues. Given the nature of the vulnerability, it primarily threatens web applications that integrate the Groovy Menu component, potentially allowing attackers to manipulate menu configurations or other stateful operations within the application context.

For European organizations, the impact of this CSRF vulnerability depends largely on the extent to which Groovy Menu is integrated into their web applications or internal tools. If exploited, attackers could perform unauthorized actions that alter application state or configurations, potentially leading to degraded user experience, unauthorized changes in application behavior, or indirect business process disruptions. While the vulnerability does not directly compromise data confidentiality or availability, integrity violations can undermine trust in the affected systems and may facilitate further attacks if combined with other vulnerabilities. Organizations handling sensitive or regulated data should be cautious, as unauthorized state changes could indirectly affect compliance or operational security. The requirement for user interaction means phishing or social engineering campaigns could be used to exploit this vulnerability, increasing risk in environments with less security awareness. Overall, the threat is moderate but should not be underestimated, especially for organizations with public-facing web applications or internal portals using Groovy Menu.

To mitigate this CSRF vulnerability effectively, European organizations should implement the following specific measures: 1) Apply any available patches or updates from the grooni vendor as soon as they are released. 2) If patches are not yet available, implement server-side CSRF protections such as synchronizer tokens (anti-CSRF tokens) in all state-changing requests involving Groovy Menu components. 3) Enforce SameSite cookie attributes (preferably 'Strict' or 'Lax') to reduce the risk of cross-origin requests carrying authentication cookies. 4) Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the domains allowed to execute scripts or submit forms, limiting attack vectors. 5) Educate users about phishing and social engineering risks to reduce the likelihood of user interaction exploitation. 6) Monitor web application logs for suspicious or unexpected state-changing requests originating from unusual sources. 7) Consider implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce the impact of compromised sessions. 8) Conduct security testing and code reviews focusing on CSRF protections in all web components, including Groovy Menu integrations.
