DescriptionCVE.org

WatchGuard Dimension's Web UI exposes an administrator passphrase change action that lacks CSRF protection. An attacker who can induce an authenticated global administrator's browser to visit a crafted link or page can change that administrator's passphrase to an attacker-chosen value without the administrator's consent.

AnalysisAI

WatchGuard Dimension's Web UI administrator passphrase change endpoint lacks CSRF protection, enabling full account takeover of global administrator accounts through a forged cross-origin browser request. An attacker who can deliver a malicious link or page to an actively authenticated global administrator can silently replace that administrator's passphrase with an attacker-controlled value, granting unrestricted access to the Dimension management platform. …
