CVE-2015-1840: CSRF vulnerability
(updated )
In the scenario where an attacker might be able to control the href
attribute of an anchor tag or the action attribute of a form tag that will trigger a POST action, the attacker can set the href
or action
to https://attacker.com
(note the leading space) that will be passed to JQuery, who will see this as a same origin request, and send the user’s CSRF token to the attacker domain.
