Summary

flaskBlog is a blog app built with Flask. In 2.8.0 and earlier, when deleting a comment, there's no validation of the ownership of the comment. Every user can delete an arbitrary comment of another user on every post, by simply intercepting the delete request and changing the commentID. The code that causes the problem is in routes/post.py.

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
