WikkaWiki <= 1.3.2 Cross-Site Request Forgery Vulnerability

Description:

WikkaWiki contains a flaw that allows a remote Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF) attack. The flaw exists because the application does not require multiple steps or explicit confirmation for sensitive transactions for admin functions, such as deleting user accounts. By using a crafted URL (e.g., a crafted GET request inside an "img" tag), an attacker may trick the victim into clicking on the image to take advantage of the trust relationship between the authenticated victim and the application.
