CVE-2026-46620: CWE-285: Improper Authorization in e107inc e107
e107 is a content management system (CMS). Prior to 2.3.5, e107 CMS does not properly enforce CSRF token validation on comment moderation actions. The problem comes down to how session_handler::check() handles CSRF tokens. Instead of requiring a token on every state-changing request, it only validates the token if one happens to be present. If there is no token at all, the check is skipped entirely. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.3.5.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The e107 content management system before version 2.3.5 improperly enforces CSRF token validation on comment moderation actions. Specifically, the session_handler::check() method does not require a CSRF token on every state-changing request; it only validates the token if present and skips the check if absent. This flaw leads to improper authorization (CWE-285) and CSRF vulnerability (CWE-352), allowing attackers to perform unauthorized comment moderation actions. The issue is resolved in e107 version 2.3.5.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to perform unauthorized comment moderation actions by bypassing CSRF token validation. This impacts the integrity of the CMS content but does not affect confidentiality or availability. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade e107 CMS to version 2.3.5 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. No other official remediation or temporary fixes are documented. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed beyond the version fix; users should verify with the vendor for the latest guidance.
