Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the administrative web interface in the proxy server on Fox-IT Fox DataDiode appliances before 1.7.2 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that (1) create administrative users, (2) remove administrative users, or (3) change permissions.
Fixes

Solution

Fox-IT has released Version 1.7.2 of the Fox DataDiode Appliance that resolves the reported vulnerability. A Fox-IT product advisory titled “Fox DataDiode Appliance 1.7.2 advisory,” containing background and preparation information, as well as the upgrade instructions, are available by contacting the local Fox-IT customer support.
