AI-powered analysis for quick understanding

This vulnerability allows an attacker to potentially take over a Ghost site by exploiting weak protections during the login process, making it easier for them to use stolen session tokens. It primarily affects versions 5.101.6 to 6.19.2, and users should upgrade to version 6.19.3 or later to fix the issue.

Technical Description

Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From version 5.101.6 to 6.19.2, incomplete CSRF protections around /session/verify made it possible to use OTCs in login sessions different from the requesting session. In some scenarios this might have made it easier for phishers to take over a Ghost site. This issue has been patched in version 6.19.3.
