Descriptions
Routes used to stop running Metasploit tasks (either particular ones or all tasks) allowed GET requests. Only POST requests should have been allowed, as the stop/stop_all routes change the state of the service. This could have allowed an attacker to stop currently-running Metasploit tasks by getting an authenticated user to execute JavaScript. As of Metasploit 4.14.0 (Update 2017061301), the routes for stopping tasks only allow POST requests, which validate the presence of a secret token to prevent CSRF attacks.
Las rutas empleadas para dejar de ejecutar tareas de Metasploit (específicas o todas) permitían peticiones GET. Solo deberían haberse permitido las peticiones POST, ya que las rutas stop/stop_all cambian el estado del servicio. Esto podría haber permitido que un atacante detenga las tareas de Metasploit actualmente en ejecución haciendo que un usuario autenticado ejecute JavaScript. En Metasploit 4.14.0 (Update 2017061301), las rutas para detener tareas solo permiten peticiones POST, que validan la presencia de un token secreto para evitar ataques Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).
