Package

pterodactyl (php)

Affected versions

< 1.6.5

Patched versions

1.6.6

Description

Impact

Due to improperly configured CSRF protections on two routes, a malicious user could execute a CSRF-based attack against the following endpoints:

  • Sending a test email.
  • Generating a node auto-deployment token.

At no point would any data be exposed to the malicious user, this would simply trigger email spam to an administrative user, or generate a single auto-deployment token unexpectedly. This token is not revealed to the malicious user, it is simply created unexpectedly in the system.

Patches

This has been addressed in bf9cbe2 which will be released as 1.6.6.

Workarounds

Users may optionally manually apply the fixes released in v1.6.6 to patch their own systems.
