CVE-2026-107809: Nginx-UI AuthRequired token cookie fallback enables CSRF against management APIs
Nginx-UI v2.4.3 stores the API JWT in a browser cookie named token and the AuthRequired middleware accepts that cookie as an authentication source. Because management endpoints are protected by AuthRequired and do not enforce a universal CSRF token or Origin/Referer check, a remote attacker can induce a logged-in administrator to submit cross-site state-changing requests. The attacker does not need to read the cross-origin response; the browser-sent cookie is enough to authenticate the request.
