Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the Web Gateway component in IBM WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition 7.0.4 and
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the Web Gateway component in IBM WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition 7.0.4 and earlier, and WebSphere MQ - Managed File Transfer 7.5, allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users for requests that (1) add user accounts via the /wmqfteconsole/Filespaces URI, (2) modify permissions via the /wmqfteconsole/FileSpacePermisssions URI, or (3) add MQ Message Descriptor (MQMD) user accounts via the /wmqfteconsole/UploadUsers URI.

Root cause
State-changing requests rely on the session cookie the browser sends automatically; nothing verifies that the request came from the user’s own page.
