CVE-2026-59977 Details
Description
ConvertX is a self-hosted file conversion service. Prior to 0.18.0, the /delete/{id} endpoint uses HTTP GET for permanent deletion without CSRF protection. If an authenticated user visits attacker-controlled content that requests /delete/{id}, the browser sends the user session cookie and the request deletes the targeted job, resulting in unauthorized loss of converted-file history. This issue is fixed in version 0.18.0.
A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability has been identified in ConvertX, a self-hosted file conversion service, in versions prior to 0.18.0. The issue arises in the Job Management API's deletion endpoint, which uses HTTP GET requests for permanent deletions without any CSRF protection. This allows an attacker to trick an authenticated user into visiting a malicious webpage that automatically sends a GET request to delete a job, resulting in an unauthorized loss of file conversion history.
Users are advised to update to ConvertX version 0.18.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
