Security Impact
CVSS: 9.1
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N).
How to Fix CVE-2024-32980
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Spin sdk dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
Upgrade spin-sdk to 2.4.3
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
inspect dependencies for spin-sdk
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2024-32980, inspect your project dependencies for Spin sdk:
inspect dependencies for spin-sdk
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Spin sdk in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.4.3), your application is affected.
Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-610: Externally Controlled Reference to a Resource in Another Sphere, where the product uses an externally controlled name or reference that resolves to a resource that is outside of the intended control sphere.

"details" : "### Impact\nSome specifically configured Spin applications that use `self` requests without a specified URL authority can be induced to make requests to arbitrary hosts via the `Host` HTTP header.\n\nIf an application's manifest contains a component with configuration such as\n```toml\nallowed_outbound_hosts = [\"http://self\", \"https://self\"]\n```\n\nand code such as\n```rust\n let res: Response = spin_sdk::http::send(\n Request::new(Method::Get, \"/\") // Note: the request URI does not contain a URL authority\n ).await?;\n```\n\nThen that application can be induced to send an outgoing request to another host (leading the app to process the response assuming it comes from another component in the same application). This can be induced with a request such as\n```shell\ncurl -H\"Host: google.com:80\" localhost:3000 # Assuming the application is served on localhost:3000\n```\n\n> Note: If using a SDK that does not use `wasi:http/outgoing-handler`, the port can be omitted from the URL.\n\n#### Vulnerable Configurations\n\nThe following conditions need to be met for an application to be vulnerable:\n1. The environment Spin is deployed in routes requests to the Spin runtime based on the request URL instead of the `Host` header, and leaves the `Host` header set to the original value by the client.\n2. The Spin application's component handling the incoming request is configured with an `allowed_outbound_hosts` list containing `\"self\"`.\n3. In reaction to an incoming request, the component makes an outbound request whose URL doesn't include the hostname/port.\n\nIf all of these conditions apply, then Spin will use the inbound request's `Host` header to determine the `authority` part of the URL if none is explicitly provided in the request's URL.\n\n#### Setups known not to be vulnerable\n\nFermyon's [Fermyon Cloud](https://developer.fermyon.com/cloud/index) serverless product and applications hosted on it are known not to be vulnerable.\n\n\n### Patches\n_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_\nSpin version 2.4.3 is being released with this advisory going public.\n\n### Workarounds\nFor deployments of Spin, a workaround is to ensure that the `Host` header is sanitized to match the application a request is routed to.\n\nFor individual applications, multiple workarounds exist:\n1. Ensure that outgoing requests always sanitize the `Host` header\n2. Ensure that outgoing requests always provide the hostname in the URL and use that hostname in the `allowed_outbound_hosts` list instead of `self`\n3. When using Spin 2.4, use [application-internal service chaining](https://developer.fermyon.com/spin/v2/http-outbound#local-service-chaining) for intra-application requests\n",
