CVE-2024-22416
January 17, 2024
pyLoad is a free and open-source Download Manager written in pure Python. The "pyload" API allows any API call to be made using GET requests. Since the session cookie is not set to "SameSite: strict", this opens the library up to severe attack possibilities via a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack. As a result any API call can be made via a CSRF attack by an unauthenticated user. This issue has been addressed in release "0.5.0b3.dev78". All users are advised to upgrade.
