Light Code Labs of Caddy Cross-site request forgery vulnerability in

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2026-005157

DESCRIPTION

Caddy is an extensible server platform that uses TLS by default. Prior to version 2.11.1, the local caddy admin API (default listen `127.0.0.1:2019`) exposes a state-changing `POST /load` endpoint that replaces the entire running configuration. When origin enforcement is not enabled (`enforce_origin` not configured), the admin endpoint accepts cross-origin requests (e.g., from attacker-controlled web content in a victim browser) and applies an attacker-supplied JSON config. This can change the admin listener settings and alter HTTP server behavior without user intent. Version 2.11.1 contains a fix for the issue. HTTP You can change the server's behavior. 2.11.1 contains a fix for this issue.There is no risk of information being leaked to the outside world regarding the information handled by the software. However, there is a possibility that all information handled by the software may be rewritten. Furthermore, the software will not shut down. Furthermore, attacks that exploit this vulnerability will not affect other software
