 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-4151-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Andrej Shadura May 01, 2025 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

 Package : golang-github-gorilla-csrf Version : 1.6.2-2+deb11u1 CVE ID : CVE-2025-24358 Debian Bug : 1103584

 The following vulnerability has been discovered in the gorilla/csrf package for Go:

 Prior to 1.7.3, gorilla/csrf did not validate the Origin header against an allowlist. It executed its validation of the Referer header for cross-origin requests only when it believed the request was being served over TLS. It determined this by inspecting the r.URL.Scheme value. However, this value was never populated for server requests per the Go spec, and so this check did not run in practice. This vulnerability allowed an attacker who has gained XSS on a subdomain or top level domain to perform authenticated form submissions against gorilla/csrf protected targets that shared the same top level domain.

 For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.2-2+deb11u1.

 The following Go packages have been rebuilt in order to fix this issue:

 golang-chroma golang-github-alecthomas-chroma-dev golang-github-niklasfasching-go-org-dev golang-github-yuin-goldmark-highlighting-dev go-org hugo

 We recommend that you upgrade these packages.
