Description
Concrete CMS 9 through 9.5.2 did not validate an anti-CSRF token in the Boards custom slot dialog controller (concrete/controllers/dialog/board/custom_slot.php) saveTemplate() action. The action created a board_slot_proxy Block and dispatched an AddCustomSlotToBoardCommand against a board instance while gating only on the per-resource canEditBoardContents() permission, so a crafted cross-site request could cause a user holding board-edit permission with an active session to write attacker-chosen slot and template data to a board under their own authority. The state-changing database write completed before any downstream rendering, so the forged request succeeded even when the HTTP response returned a non-200 status. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v4.0 score of 5.3 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Winston Crooker for reporting.
