The vulnerability stems from missing CSRF token validation in admin endpoints outside of user/roles settings. The advisory explicitly lists numerous admin endpoints (e.g. /admin/asset/add-asset, /admin/object/save) that lacked X-pimcore-csrf-token validation. In Pimcore's MVC architecture, these endpoints map directly to controller actions in the AdminBundle. The functions listed represent critical administrative operations that would appear in runtime profilers when handling malicious CSRF requests. Confidence is high as the advisory provides specific endpoint paths and the vulnerability pattern matches missing security controls in controller actions.
