CVE-2020-37217: Easy2Pilot 7 Cross-Site Request Forgery via admin.php
Easy2Pilot 7 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows attackers to add unauthorized user accounts by tricking authenticated administrators into visiting malicious pages. Attackers can craft HTML forms targeting the admin.php?action=add_user endpoint with POST requests containing username and password parameters to create new administrative accounts without explicit user consent.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Easy2Pilot 7 administrators can be tricked into creating unauthorized user accounts while already logged in. The issue depends on administrator interaction with a malicious page, so it is not a direct unauthenticated takeover, but it can still create administrative access if the workflow is exposed and unprotected. Exposure is limited to organizations running Easy2Pilot version 7 with authenticated administrators using vulnerable administrative sessions. Risk is higher if administrators browse external content from the same browser session or if the admin interface is reachable from untrusted networks. Treat this as a targeted access-control risk, not an internet-scale emergency. Prioritize inventory, admin-interface restriction, and account review. Escalate if Easy2Pilot 7 is internet-accessible or used for sensitive operational workflows. Mitigation focus: Check Easy2Pilot or VulnCheck guidance for any vendor-provided fix or supported upgrade path.; Restrict administrative interface access to trusted networks or VPN users only.; Require administrators to use separate browser profiles for administrative tasks..

CWE-352: User-session and phishing behavior lookup
Client-side and session-facing weaknesses should be reviewed alongside initial-access and user-execution behaviors. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
The CVE wording references authentication or credential exposure, so valid-account and credential-access review may help. This is a Glexia inferred lookup path, not an official MITRE, ATT&CK, or CVE Program mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
