DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in SPINE, which can be exploited by
malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks.

The vulnerability is caused due to the application allowing
administrators to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without
performing any validity checks to verify the request. This can e.g.
be exploited to add new users by enticing a logged-in administrator
to visit a malicious web page.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 1.2. The
supposedly fixed version 1.2 is still affected by this vulnerability
via POST requests.

SOLUTION:
Until an update is available the vendor, recommends users to not
visit untrusted web sites while being logged in to the administration
