Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the pieforms implementation in Mahara before 1.3.6 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests to any form, related to inappropriate regeneration of session keys.
The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.
