In Calibre-web, versions 0.6.0 to 0.6.13 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). By luring an authenticated user to click on a link, an attacker can create a new user role with admin privileges and attacker-controlled credentials, allowing them to take over the application.
In “Calibre-web” application, v0.6.0 to v0.6.12, are vulnerable to Stored XSS in “Metadata”. An attacker that has access to edit the metadata information, can inject JavaScript payload in the description field. When a victim tries to open the file, XSS will be triggered.
