CVE-2026-10055 Details
Description
In Eclipse Theia since version 1.26.0, the backend /services/request-service RPC accepts an attacker-controlled URL from any client connected to the standard /services messaging endpoint, performs the HTTP request server-side, and returns the full response body to the caller. Because the destination URL is neither validated nor allowlisted, a remote attacker with access to the Theia service connection can issue server-side HTTP requests to localhost or other backend-reachable hosts and read their responses, exposing internal administrative endpoints, cloud instance metadata services, and other resources that are intentionally outside the browser network boundary. The vulnerability affects deployments where the Theia service connection is reachable by untrusted users (for example, multi-tenant or publicly-reachable Theia deployments).
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability has been identified in Eclipse Theia versions 1.26.0 and later. The issue arises in the backend '/services/request-service' RPC, which accepts an attacker-controlled URL from any client connected to the standard '/services' messaging endpoint. Theia's backend then performs an HTTP request to the specified URL and returns the full response body to the caller. This vulnerability allows remote attackers with access to the Theia service connection to issue HTTP requests to localhost or other backend-reachable hosts, potentially exposing internal administrative endpoints, cloud instance metadata services, and other resources that are intentionally not accessible from the browser.
Users can upgrade to Eclipse Theia version 1.73.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched. For those unable to upgrade, it is recommended to restrict network access to the Theia backend, block the RPC at the proxy layer, treat all users with access to the Theia connection as trusted, and run the backend with restricted egress.
