The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests and fails to properly check the validity of the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. create additional administrative users if a logged-in administrative user visits a specially crafted web site. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.3.2. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not browse untrusted web sites or follow links from untrusted sources while being logged-in to the application.
