DescriptionCVE.org

A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in FreePBX Framework 17.0 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to perform administrative actions on behalf of an authenticated administrator. The /admin/ajax.php dispatcher in amp_conf/htdocs/admin/libraries/BMO/Ajax.class.php does not implement CSRF tokens; its only protection is a Referer header check that is bypassed when the request is sent without a Referer header or from a same-site context, enabling attackers to trigger admin operations by luring an administrator to a malicious page.

AnalysisAI

Cross-site request forgery in FreePBX Framework 17.0 permits an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary administrative operations against the telephony platform by forging requests on behalf of a logged-in administrator. The root cause is the complete absence of CSRF token validation in the BMO Ajax dispatcher (Ajax.class.php), whose sole defence - a Referer header check - is trivially bypassed by suppressing the header or exploiting same-site request semantics. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify internet-accessible FreePBX admin panel
Delivery
Craft malicious page with forged AJAX request and no-referrer policy
Exploit
Phish authenticated administrator to visit malicious page
Execution
Browser submits request with valid session cookie, no Referer header
Persist
FreePBX Referer check bypassed silently
Impact
Arbitrary admin action executed on telephony platform

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target administrator must hold an active authenticated FreePBX session (valid session cookie) at the moment the forged request is submitted - exploitation is limited to the window during which an admin is logged in. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) accurately characterises the attack profile: network-reachable, low complexity, no attacker credentials required, one user interaction needed (admin visits a malicious page), and full C/I/A impact within the application scope. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker identifies a FreePBX 17.0 deployment and crafts a malicious web page containing hidden HTML forms or JavaScript `fetch()` calls with `referrerPolicy: 'no-referrer'` targeting the victim organisation's `/admin/ajax.php` endpoint. The attacker sends a phishing email to a FreePBX administrator who is currently logged into the panel; upon visiting the malicious page, the admin's browser silently submits the forged request - carrying the legitimate session cookie - causing FreePBX to execute the attacker-chosen administrative action, such as adding a rogue SIP trunk, creating a backdoor admin account, or modifying call routing rules. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the available references point only to the upstream GitHub repository (https://github.com/FreePBX/framework) and the vulnerable source file, with no tagged release, changelog entry, or vendor security advisory confirming a fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, conduct an inventory of all FreePBX 17.0 instances across your infrastructure and restrict administrative access to whitelisted IP addresses via firewall. …
