What is CVE-2017-15731?

In versions of phpMyFAQ prior to 2.9.9, a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists within the admin panel, specifically in the admin/stat.adminlog.php file. This allows attackers to exploit the lack of proper request validation, potentially leading to unauthorized actions being performed by authenticated users without their consent. It is crucial for administrators to update to the latest version to mitigate this risk effectively.
