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 Arc/web, 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

A vulnerability was found in Ariadne Component Library up to 2.x. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown function of the file src/url/Url.php. The manipulation leads to server-side request forgery. Upgrading to version 3.0 can address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-217140.
