Threat metrics

Exploit Maturity: POC

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: Passive: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires limited interaction by the targeted user with the vulnerable system and the attacker’s payload. These interactions would be considered involuntary and do not require that the user actively subvert protections built into the vulnerable system.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 30 Jul 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: evidence found.
CVSS exploit maturity: proof of concept public
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), CVSS vector, the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

These include: 1) Implementing anti-CSRF tokens in all state-changing forms and requests to ensure that requests originate from legitimate user interactions within the application. 2) Enforcing SameSite cookie attributes (preferably 'Strict' or 'Lax') to prevent cookies from being sent with cross-site requests. 3) Validating the HTTP Referer or Origin headers on sensitive requests to confirm they originate from trusted sources. 4) Educating users about phishing and social engineering risks to reduce the likelihood of user interaction with malicious sites. 5) Monitoring web application logs for unusual or unauthorized state-changing requests that could indicate exploitation attempts. 6) Considering web application firewalls (WAFs) with CSRF detection capabilities as an additional layer of defense. 7) Planning for an upgrade or patch deployment once the vendor releases a fix. These measures go beyond generic advice by focusing on application-layer controls and user awareness tailored to the specific vulnerability context.

Description

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in code-projects Simple Car Rental System 1.0. This affects an unknown part. The manipulation leads to cross-site request forgery. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Impact

For European organizations using the Simple Car Rental System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized actions being performed on their web application by attackers exploiting CSRF. Although the impact on confidentiality is minimal, the integrity of business transactions and user data could be compromised, potentially leading to fraudulent bookings, unauthorized changes to rental agreements, or manipulation of customer information. This could result in financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory compliance issues, especially under GDPR where unauthorized data manipulation is a concern. The medium severity rating reflects that while the vulnerability is not critical, it can be exploited remotely without authentication, making it accessible to a wide range of attackers. The requirement for user interaction means that social engineering or phishing tactics could be used to lure authenticated users into triggering the exploit. Given the nature of car rental systems, which often handle personal data and payment information, the integrity risks could have downstream effects on customer trust and operational continuity. However, the absence of known active exploits reduces immediate risk but does not eliminate the threat, especially as exploit code is publicly available.
