Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in cPanel, which could be exploited to manipulate certain data. These issues are caused by errors in various scripts that do not validate user-supplied data and HTTP requests, which could be exploited by attackers to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks and perform certain actions e.g. add a new mysql or ftp user, or a cron task by tricking a user into clicking a specially crafted link.
