Impact

Cross‑Site Request Forgery in Unraid OS 6.12.14 and earlier allows attackers to hijack authentication cookies due to a lax SameSite policy. Threat actors can send forged requests from a victim's browser to the Unraid web interface, gaining the privileges associated with the authenticated session without needing to know the user’s credentials.

Affected Systems

Lime Technology’s Unraid OS version 6.12.14 and all earlier releases are impacted. The vulnerability resides in the web interface’s handling of authentication cookies, which is part of the operating system’s management UI.

Risk and Exploitability

Because the flaw expands the attack surface to any user with access to the web interface and can be triggered by a remote attacker using only a crafted URL or malicious webpage, the risk is high. No CVSS score is published, but the exploitation is straightforward and does not require local code execution. The EPSS score is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Nevertheless, the ability to elevate privileges without credentials makes this a critical issue for systems that expose the Unraid management console to the internet or to untrusted networks.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Unraid OS to a version newer than 6.12.14 where the authentication cookie’s SameSite attribute has been fixed.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, configure the web server or middleware to enforce the SameSite=Strict attribute on authentication cookies, thereby preventing cross‑site requests from using the cookie.
  • Restrict access to the Unraid web interface to trusted IP ranges and enable two‑factor authentication, reducing the likelihood that a malicious actor can exploit the CSRF risk.
