Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF). A valid csrf_token generated for one user session can be considered valid for another user session. An attacker can obtain a value within the context of an unprivileged user account, and then use that value in a CSRF attack against an admin (e.g., for account takeover).
