CVE-2025-55040: The import form CSRF vulnerability in MuraCMS through 10.1.10 allows attackers to upload and install malicious form definitions through a CSRF attack. The vulnerable cForm.importform function lacks CSRF token validation, enabling malicious websites to forge file upload requests that install attacker-controlled forms when an authenticated administrator visits a crafted webpage. Full exploitation of this vulnerability would require the victim to select a malicious ZIP file containing form definitions, which can be automatically generated by the exploit page and used to create data collection forms that steal sensitive information. Successful exploitation of the import form CSRF vulnerability could result in the installation of malicious data collection forms on the target MuraCMS website that can steal sensitive user information. When an authenticated administrator visits a malicious webpage containing the CSRF exploit and selects the attacker-generated ZIP file, their browser uploads and installs form definitions that create legitimate forms that could be designed with malicious content.
The exploitability of CVE-2025-55040 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
With low attack complexity and no required privileges, CVE-2025-55040 is an easy target for cybercriminals. Organizations should prioritize immediate mitigation measures to prevent unauthorized access and data breaches.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2025-55040, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2025-55040, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
