Product:
================================

Vulnerability Type:
=================================
Privilege Escalation / CSRF



Vulnerability Details:
=====================

PHP Server Monitor uses level 20 for basic user and level 10 for Admins these 
are stored in Database. Basic users can elevate thier privileges to that of 
Administrator
by crafting an HTTP payload changing their level to '10' then getting an 
Administrator to click an infected link or visit a malicious website to launch 
an
CSRF attack which will grant the user admin access. This problem is due to no 
CSRF protection mechanism in place.
