SCA: security update for froxlor/froxlor (GHSA-xpr4-8vp6-c87j)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 446096

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Froxlor is open source server administration software. Prior to 2.3.8, the standalone lib/ajax.php entry
 point bypasses the centralized request validation in lib/init.php, and Ajax::handle in
 lib/Froxlor/Ajax/Ajax.php checks only for a valid session before routing state-changing requests. The
 editapikey action in Ajax::editApiKey updates allowed_from and valid_until without validating a CSRF
 token, while templates/Froxlor/assets/js/jquery/apikeys.js sends no token because the endpoint does not
 require one. An unauthenticated attacker can induce an authenticated administrator's browser to submit a
 forged request that adds an attacker-controlled address to an API key's allowed_from list or removes its
 expiration, weakening the key's security restrictions. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.8.
 (CVE-2026-55593)

Solution

Update the froxlor/froxlor library and its related packages to version 2.3.8 or later.
