CVE-2010-3978: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

November 17, 2010 (updated October 10, 2018)

Spree exchanges data using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) without a mechanism for validating requests, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via vectors involving (1) admin/products.json, (2) admin/users.json, or (3) admin/overview/get_report_data, related to a “JSON hijacking” issue.
