DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Easy!Appointments is a self hosted appointment scheduler. In 1.5.2 and earlier, application/core/EA_Security.php::csrf_verify() only enforces CSRF for POST requests and returns early for non-POST methods. Several application endpoints perform state-changing operations while accepting parameters from GET (or $_REQUEST), so an attacker can perform CSRF by forcing a victim's browser to issue a crafted GET request. Impact: creation of admin accounts, modification of admin email/password, and full admin account takeover.

AnalysisAI

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in Easy!Appointments 1.5.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to perform administrative actions including admin account creation, credential modification, and full account takeover by tricking authenticated administrators into visiting a malicious page. The vulnerability stems from incomplete CSRF protection that only validates POST requests while state-changing operations accept GET parameters. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated administrator to be logged into the Easy!Appointments instance and visit an attacker-controlled web page (UI:P in CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.4 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P indicates network-accessible attacks with low complexity requiring only user interaction (victim must click a link or visit a page). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker identifies an organization using Easy!Appointments by fingerprinting the application interface or subdomain naming patterns (e.g., appointments.company.com). The attacker crafts a malicious HTML page containing hidden image tags or JavaScript that triggers GET requests to administrative endpoints: <img src='https://appointments.company.com/index.php/backend_api/ajax_save_admin?username=attacker&password=Password123&email=attacker@evil.com'/>. …
Remediation Upgrade to Easy!Appointments version 1.5.3 or later where CSRF protection has been extended to all HTTP methods and GET-based state-changing endpoints have been migrated to POST-only operations. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
