Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
flusity-CMS v2.33 was discovered to contain a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) via the component /core/tools/update_place.php

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

flusity-CMS v2.33 contains a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the /core/tools/update_place.php component. This allows attackers to trick authenticated users into submitting unintended requests to update place data, as the affected endpoint lacks proper anti-CSRF token validation.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (synchronizer token pattern) on the update_place.php endpoint and validate them server-side. Additionally, enforce SameSite cookie attributes and validate Origin/Referer headers as defense-in-depth measures.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Confirm flusity-CMS version
    Locate the version identifier in the flusity-CMS installation (typically in a configuration file, README, or admin dashboard about section) and verify it is exactly version 2.33
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 2.33
  2. Verify update_place.php exists
    Check if the file /core/tools/update_place.php exists in the web root or application directory of the flusity-CMS installation
    Affected if The file /core/tools/update_place.php is present in the installation
  3. Inspect anti-CSRF token validation in update_place.php
    Open /core/tools/update_place.php and examine the code for presence of anti-CSRF token validation (look for token checks, synchronizer token pattern, or similar validation logic before processing the update request)
    Affected if The update_place.php endpoint lacks proper anti-CSRF token validation logic in its code
  4. Check SameSite cookie configuration
    Review the application cookie configuration or session settings to determine if SameSite cookie attributes are enforced on session cookies
    Affected if SameSite cookie attributes are not properly configured (this is a defense-in-depth measure whose absence increases CSRF risk)

The environment is affected if flusity-CMS version 2.33 is installed, the update_place.php endpoint exists, and the code lacks anti-CSRF token validation on that endpoint.
