CVE-2026-48211 Details
Description
An authenticated administrator can be induced to delete administrative Import/Export templates through a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack. The OTRS AdminImportExport::TemplateDelete action does not validate the request's ChallengeToken, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to craft a malicious request that is executed with the privileges of an active administrator session. This issue affects OTRS: * 7.0.X * 8.0.X * 2023.X * 2024.X * 2025.X * 2026.X before 2026.7.X Please note that ((OTRS)) Community Edition 6.x and before are vulnerable. Products based on the ((OTRS)) Community Edition also very likely to be affected
A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability has been identified in the Import/Export administrative console of OTRS and OTRS Community Edition. This issue allows an authenticated administrator to be tricked into deleting administrative templates. The vulnerability arises because the 'AdminImportExport::TemplateDelete' action fails to properly validate the request's ChallengeToken. As a result, an unauthenticated remote attacker can create a malicious request that is executed with the privileges of an active administrator session. This vulnerability affects OTRS versions 7.0.X, 8.0.X, 2023.X, 2024.X, 2025.X, and 2026.X prior to 2026.7.X. Additionally, OTRS Community Edition 6.x and earlier versions are vulnerable. Products based on OTRS Community Edition are also likely affected.
Users are advised to update to OTRS version 2026.7.1 or later. Note that there will be no patches for OTRS 7.
