How to fix?

Upgrade org.apache.jspwiki:jspwiki-war to version 2.11.3 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.jspwiki:jspwiki-war is an open source WikiWiki engine, feature-rich and built around standard JEE components (Java, servlets, JSP).

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) due to not adequately filtering requests against UserPreferences.jsp. This allows an attacker to modify an account email address and reset its password, thereby taking over the account.

NOTE: This vulnerability can be worked around in versions 2.7.0 and on by requiring manual approval for user management workflows.
