CVE-2026-41170 Details
Description
Squidex is an open source headless content management system and content management hub. Prior to version 7.23.0, the `RestoreController.PostRestoreJob` endpoint allows an administrator to supply an arbitrary URL for downloading backup archives. This URL is fetched using the "Backup" `HttpClient` without any SSRF protection. A malicious or compromised admin can use this endpoint to probe internal network services, access cloud metadata endpoints, or perform internal reconnaissance. The vulnerability is authenticated (Admin-only) but highly impactful, allowing potential access to sensitive internal resources. Version 7.23.0 contains a fix.
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability has been identified in Squidex versions prior to 7.23.0. The issue arises in the `RestoreController.PostRestoreJob` endpoint, where administrators can submit arbitrary URLs for downloading backup archives. This URL is retrieved using the 'Backup' HttpClient, lacking any SSRF protection. As a result, a malicious or compromised admin could exploit this to probe internal network services, access cloud metadata endpoints, or conduct internal reconnaissance. The vulnerability is authenticated and limited to admin users, but it poses a significant risk by potentially exposing sensitive internal resources.
Users can update to Squidex version 7.23.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
