CWE-918

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.

CVE-2026-9813 (GCVE-0-2026-9813)

Title
FlowIntel external reference URL probe allows server-side request forgery
Summary
FlowIntel up to version 3.3.0 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the external reference URL probe functionality in app/case/task.py. An attacker who can submit an external reference URL can cause the application server to issue an HTTP HEAD request to an attacker-specified destination. Due to insufficient validation of the URL scheme and resolved destination address, affected versions may allow requests to loopback, link-local, private, reserved, or other restricted network resources, potentially enabling interaction with internal services or cloud metadata endpoints from the server's network context.

CAPEC-664: Server Side Request Forgery

An adversary exploits improper input validation by submitting maliciously crafted input to a target application running on a server, with the goal of forcing the server to make a request either to itself, to web services running in the server’s internal network, or to external third parties. If successful, the adversary’s request will be made with the server’s privilege level, bypassing its authentication controls. This ultimately allows the adversary to access sensitive data, execute commands on the server’s network, and make external requests with the stolen identity of the server. Server Side Request Forgery attacks differ from Cross Site Request Forgery attacks in that they target the server itself, whereas CSRF attacks exploit an insecure user authentication mechanism to perform unauthorized actions on the user's behalf.
