http://secunia.com/advisories/38336/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Status2k, which can be exploited
by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks.

The application allows administrative users to perform certain
actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to
verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change
administrative password or add a new administrative user by tricking
a logged in administrator into visiting a malicious web site.

logged in to the application.
