Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), where 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. In Duplicate Advisory, 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

## Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-5q9x-554g-9jgg. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ## Original Description SurrealDB before 2.2.2 fails to validate HTTP redirects in http functions, allowing authenticated users to bypass deny-net restrictions by redirecting to blocked IP addresses. Attackers can host a public server that redirects to denied network targets, enabling server-side request forgery to access internal endpoints and retrieve sensitive information.
