Vulnerability Data
Fiber is an express inspired web framework written in Go. A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability has been identified in the application, which allows an attacker to obtain tokens and forge malicious requests on behalf of a user. This can…

lead to unauthorized actions being taken on the user's behalf, potentially compromising the security and integrity of the application. The vulnerability is caused by improper validation and enforcement of CSRF tokens within the application. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 2.50.0 and users are advised to upgrade. Users should take additional security measures like captchas or Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and set Session cookies with SameSite=Lax or SameSite=Secure, and the Secure and HttpOnly attributes.

Likely Mitigating Controls AI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Awareness training educates users on avoiding untrusted links and actions that can be exploited via CSRF.
Requiring user re-entry of credentials for sensitive actions prevents automated forgery of requests without active user participation.
Security testing regimens explicitly include checks for missing or ineffective anti-CSRF protections in web applications.
Detects anomalous request patterns consistent with cross-site request forgery.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Cookies commonly carry identity assertions; requiring their protection, conveyance, and verification directly eliminates the weakness.
Strong authentication mechanisms reduce reliance on unvalidated cookies for identity and access decisions.
Cryptographic integrity for data-in-transit directly mitigates tampering of cookies sent over the network.
Secure SDLC practices directly require anti-CSRF controls such as tokens or SameSite attributes.
Enforcing access policy and least privilege limits damage from cookie misuse but does not address cookie validation itself.
Integrity protections for data-at-rest can apply to cookie stores but do not cover validation during use.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing can detect cookie-validation flaws but does not itself implement the required controls.
By denying access to phishing or malicious sites, the control lowers the likelihood that a user will be tricked into submitting a forged request that performs an unintended action on another site.
Application security requirements can mandate cookie validation, integrity protection, and server-side session handling.
Secure coding practices directly eliminate reliance on unvalidated cookies by requiring proper integrity checks and server-side verification.
Secure authentication mechanisms can enforce server-side validation and integrity checks that prevent reliance on untrusted cookies.
Contextual intelligence about emerging CSRF toolkits can be translated into updated anti-CSRF token or same-site policy configurations across applications.
