CVE-2016-10522
rails_admin ruby gem <v1.1.1 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.98%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
rails_admin ruby gem <v1.1.1 is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. Non-GET methods were not validating CSRF tokens and, as a result, an attacker could hypothetically gain access to the application administrative endpoints exposed by the gem.
