## Description

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in ATutor 2.2 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that (1) create an administrator account via a request to mods/_core/users/admins/create.php or (2) create a user account via a request to mods/_core/users/create_user.php.

## What to do
