### Impact This vulnerability allows an attacker who controls content on the target site, or on a subdomain of the target site (either via XSS, or otherwise) to bypass Cross-Site Request Forgery checks and issue requests on user's behalf. ### Details Due to misuse of the Go `net/http` library, nosurf categorizes all incoming requests as plain-text HTTP requests, in which case the `Referer` header is not checked to have the same origin as the target webpage.

I checked out the European vulnerability database, EUVD, which was officially launched yesterday. Its usefulness is questionable for now. 🤷‍♂️ 🔹 Basically, they pull data from public sources (MITRE CVE DB, CISA KEV, GHSA, EPSS, and a few others), map it under their own EUVD identifier (everything is mapped by CVE 😉), and provide a […]
