AC:H because dashboard must be actively running when victim visits the malicious page; S:C because CSRF exploits browser trust to trigger OS-level command execution via the local dashboard process.

career-ops is an open-source AI-assisted job search and application management tool. Prior to 0.8.0, the career-ops local web dashboard web/ exposed command-spawning and user-file-writing /api routes without validating request origin or restricting clients to loopback addresses. A malicious page in another browser tab could send cross-origin localhost requests while the dashboard was running, and a dashboard bound beyond loopback could receive direct requests from the local network. Both paths allowed unauthenticated command execution as the dashboard user, but npm installations were unaffected because web/ is excluded from the published package. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.0.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated command execution is possible against the career-ops local web dashboard (web/) because its /api routes - which spawn child processes and write user files - accepted cross-origin requests without validating the Sec-Fetch-Site or Origin header, and without enforcing loopback-only binding. Two independent attack paths exist: a drive-by CSRF where any malicious page in another browser tab POSTs silently to http://localhost:<port>/api, and a LAN-direct path if the dev server is bound to 0.0.0.0. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires: (1) the victim is running career-ops web/ from source - npm package installations are explicitly unaffected; (2) the career-ops local dashboard is actively running on the victim's machine at the time of attack. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.8 accurately captures the constrained real-world risk: AT:P (specific attack condition - dashboard must be running) and UI:P (victim must visit a malicious page) together significantly reduce exploitability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade to career-ops web v0.8.0, which introduces origin-guard.mjs middleware enforcing same-origin checks and loopback-only binding across all /api routes. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
