CVE-2025-62687 is a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability identified in LogStare Collector, a Windows-based log collection and monitoring product by LogStare Inc. The vulnerability affects versions 2.4.1 and earlier. CSRF vulnerabilities occur when an attacker tricks an authenticated user into submitting a malicious request unknowingly, exploiting the user's active session to perform unauthorized actions. In this case, if a user logged into the LogStare Collector management interface visits a crafted malicious webpage, the attacker can induce the user’s browser to send unintended commands to the LogStare Collector server. These commands can alter system configurations or perform other high-integrity-impact operations without the user’s consent. The CVSS 3.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N) indicates that the attack is network-based, requires low attack complexity, no privileges, but does require user interaction (viewing a malicious page). The vulnerability does not compromise confidentiality or availability but can severely impact the integrity of the system by unauthorized modification of settings or data. No public exploits have been reported yet, but the vulnerability is published and should be addressed promptly. The lack of available patches at the time of disclosure suggests that organizations must implement interim mitigations until updates are released. The vulnerability arises from insufficient CSRF protections in the web interface of LogStare Collector, a common issue in web applications that do not validate the origin or authenticity of state-changing requests.

For European organizations, the impact of CVE-2025-62687 can be significant, especially for those relying on LogStare Collector for critical log management and security monitoring. Unauthorized changes to the log collection configuration could lead to loss of log integrity, disabling of important monitoring functions, or redirection of logs to attacker-controlled systems, undermining incident detection and response capabilities. This can increase the risk of undetected breaches or compliance violations under regulations such as GDPR, which mandate secure and reliable logging. Since the vulnerability requires user interaction, social engineering or phishing campaigns targeting administrators or operators of LogStare Collector could facilitate exploitation. The integrity compromise could also affect forensic investigations and audit trails, critical for regulatory compliance and cybersecurity operations. The absence of confidentiality or availability impact reduces the risk of data leakage or service downtime but does not diminish the importance of maintaining log integrity in security operations.

1. Apply patches or updates from LogStare Inc. as soon as they become available to address the CSRF vulnerability directly. 2. Until patches are released, restrict access to the LogStare Collector management interface to trusted networks and users only, using network segmentation, VPNs, or firewall rules. 3. Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious CSRF attack patterns targeting the LogStare Collector interface. 4. Educate and train administrators and users to avoid clicking on suspicious links or visiting untrusted websites while logged into the LogStare Collector interface. 5. Monitor logs and system behavior for unusual configuration changes or access patterns that could indicate exploitation attempts. 6. If possible, enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) on the management interface to reduce the risk of session hijacking or unauthorized access. 7. Review and harden session management and CSRF token implementation in the LogStare Collector configuration if customization is supported. 8. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on the management interface to identify and remediate similar vulnerabilities proactively.
