Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Mahara before 1.4.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that add a user to an institution.
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.
