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
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in tubepress TubePress.NET tubepressnet allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects TubePress.NET: from n/a through <= 4.0.1.

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 · moderate confidence

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in TubePress.NET plugin/component up to version 4.0.1 allows attackers to induce authenticated users to perform unintended state-changing actions. The vulnerability exists due to missing or inadequate CSRF protections on sensitive endpoints.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (synchronizer token pattern) on all state-changing operations (POST/PUT/DELETE requests), validate Origin/Referer headers server-side, and set SameSite attribute on session cookies.

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. Identify the installed TubePress.NET version
    Locate the TubePress.NET plugin/component in your application and determine its version number, typically found in a version file, plugin metadata, or header comment
    Affected if The installed version is 4.0.1 or any earlier version within the 4.x line
  2. Locate state-changing endpoints
    Review the application codebase for endpoints that perform actions via POST, PUT, or DELETE requests, such as settings updates, content management, or user actions
    Affected if The application contains state-changing endpoints and the installed version is 4.0.1 or earlier
  3. Inspect endpoints for anti-CSRF token requirements
    Examine the state-changing endpoint handlers to determine whether they require a synchronizer token (anti-CSRF token) to be submitted with the request
    Affected if State-changing endpoints do not require valid anti-CSRF tokens and the installed version is 4.0.1 or earlier
  4. Verify Origin/Referer header validation
    Check the server-side code for validation of Origin or Referer HTTP headers on state-changing requests
    Affected if The application does not validate Origin or Referer headers on state-changing requests and the installed version is 4.0.1 or earlier
  5. Check session cookie SameSite attribute
    Inspect the session cookie configuration to determine if the SameSite attribute is set
    Affected if Session cookies lack the SameSite attribute and the installed version is 4.0.1 or earlier

A user is affected if they are running TubePress.NET version 4.0.1 or earlier AND their application exposes state-changing endpoints that lack CSRF protection mechanisms (missing anti-CSRF tokens, no Origin/Referer validation, or no SameSite cookie attribute).
