CVE-2026-26013 (GCVE-0-2026-26013)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-02-10 21:51 – Updated: 2026-02-11 21:26

Title

LangChain affected by SSRF via image_url token counting in ChatOpenAI.get_num_tokens_from_messages

Summary

LangChain is a framework for building agents and LLM-powered applications. Prior to 1.2.11, the ChatOpenAI.get_num_tokens_from_messages() method fetches arbitrary image_url values without validation when computing token counts for vision-enabled models. This allows attackers to trigger Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks by providing malicious image URLs in user input. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.2.11.

Severity ?

3.7 (Low)

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-11 14:23 – Updated: 2026-02-11 14:23

Summary

LangChain affected by SSRF via image_url token counting in ChatOpenAI.get_num_tokens_from_messages

Details

Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in ChatOpenAI Image Token Counting

Summary

The ChatOpenAI.get_num_tokens_from_messages() method fetches arbitrary image_url values without validation when computing token counts for vision-enabled models. This allows attackers to trigger Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks by providing malicious image URLs in user input.

Severity

Low - The vulnerability allows SSRF attacks but has limited impact due to: - Responses are not returned to the attacker (blind SSRF) - Default 5-second timeout limits resource exhaustion - Non-image responses fail at PIL image parsing

Impact

An attacker who can control image URLs passed to get_num_tokens_from_messages() can: - Trigger HTTP requests from the application server to arbitrary internal or external URLs - Cause the server to access internal network resources (private IPs, cloud metadata endpoints) - Cause minor resource consumption through image downloads (bounded by timeout)

Note: This vulnerability occurs during token counting, which may happen outside of model invocation (e.g., in logging, metrics, or token budgeting flows).

Details

The vulnerable code path: 1. get_num_tokens_from_messages() processes messages containing image_url content blocks 2. For images without detail: "low", it calls _url_to_size() to fetch the image and compute token counts 3. _url_to_size() performs httpx.get(image_source) on any URL without validation 4. Prior to the patch, there was no SSRF protection, size limits, or explicit timeout

File: libs/partners/openai/langchain_openai/chat_models/base.py

Patches

The vulnerability has been patched in langchain-openai==1.1.9 (requires langchain-core==1.2.11).

The patch adds: 1. SSRF validation using langchain_core._security._ssrf_protection.validate_safe_url() to block: - Private IP ranges (RFC 1918, loopback, link-local) - Cloud metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254, etc.) - Invalid URL schemes 2. Explicit size limits (50 MB maximum, matching OpenAI's payload limit) 3. Explicit timeout (5 seconds, same as httpx.get default) 4. Allow disabling image fetching via allow_fetching_images=False parameter

Workarounds

If you cannot upgrade immediately:

Sanitize input: Validate and filter image_url values before passing messages to token counting or model invocation
Use network controls: Implement egress filtering to prevent outbound requests to private IPs

Severity ?

3.7 (Low)

This allows attackers to trigger Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks by providing malicious image URLs in user input.\n\n### Severity\n**Low** - The vulnerability allows SSRF attacks but has limited impact due to:\n- Responses are not returned to the attacker (blind SSRF)\n- Default 5-second timeout limits resource exhaustion\n- Non-image responses fail at PIL image parsing\n\n### Impact\nAn attacker who can control image URLs passed to `get_num_tokens_from_messages()` can:\n- Trigger HTTP requests from the application server to arbitrary internal or external URLs\n- Cause the server to access internal network resources (private IPs, cloud metadata endpoints)\n- Cause minor resource consumption through image downloads (bounded by timeout)\n\n**Note:** This vulnerability occurs during token counting, which may happen outside of model invocation (e.g., in logging, metrics, or token budgeting flows).\n\n### Details\nThe vulnerable code path:\n1. `get_num_tokens_from_messages()` processes messages containing `image_url` content blocks\n2. For images without `detail: \"low\"`, it calls `_url_to_size()` to fetch the image and compute token counts\n3. `_url_to_size()` performs `httpx.get(image_source)` on any URL without validation\n4. Prior to the patch, there was no SSRF protection, size limits, or explicit timeout\n\n**File:** `libs/partners/openai/langchain_openai/chat_models/base.py`\n\n### Patches\nThe vulnerability has been patched in `langchain-openai==1.1.9` (requires `langchain-core==1.2.11`).\n\nThe patch adds:\n1. **SSRF validation** using `langchain_core._security._ssrf_protection.validate_safe_url()` to block:\n   - Private IP ranges (RFC 1918, loopback, link-local)\n   - Cloud metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254, etc.)\n   - Invalid URL schemes\n2. **Explicit size limits** (50 MB maximum, matching OpenAI\u0027s payload limit)\n3. **Explicit timeout** (5 seconds, same as `httpx.get` default)\n4. **Allow disabling image fetching** via `allow_fetching_images=False` parameter\n\n### Workarounds\nIf you cannot upgrade immediately:\n\n1. **Sanitize input:** Validate and filter `image_url` values before passing messages to token counting or model invocation\n2. **Use network controls:** Implement egress filtering to prevent outbound requests to private IPs",
