An issue was discovered in Scytl sVote 2.1. Because the IP address from an X-Forwarded-For header (which can be manipulated client-side) is used for the internal application logs, an attacker can inject wrong IP addresses into these logs.

Weakness

This attack-focused weakness is caused by incorrectly implemented authentication schemes that are subject to spoofing attacks.
