CVE-2026-55744
CWE-352Published: June 18, 2026· Updated: Jun 22, 2026
Official Description
Cotonti 1.0.0 (master branch, commit f43f1fc3) is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in the Personal File Storage (PFS) module. In modules/pfs/inc/pfs.main.php, the file upload action ('a=upload') processes uploaded files without calling cot_check_xg() to validate the anti-CSRF token, even though sibling actions such as 'delete' (line 272) do. A remote attacker who lures an authenticated user into visiting a malicious page can force the browser to submit a forged multipart request that uploads arbitrary files into the victim's PFS storage.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-55744 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation does not require any privileges, though user interaction (Required) is needed, which slightly reduces the risk of mass automated attacks.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 8.1.
