CVE-2026-42591 Details
Description
Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files. Prior to 8.32.0, the LibreOffice conversion endpoint (/forms/libreoffice/convert) passes uploaded documents directly to LibreOffice without inspecting their content. LibreOffice then fetches any embedded external URLs on its own, completely bypassing the SSRF filters. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.32.0.
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in Gotenberg versions through 8.31.0, specifically in the LibreOffice conversion endpoint. This endpoint uploads documents directly to LibreOffice without prior content inspection. As a result, LibreOffice can independently fetch embedded external URLs, circumventing any SSRF filters. The vulnerability allows exfiltration of response data through the generated PDF, with potential access to internal services or cloud metadata. The issue is addressed in Gotenberg version 8.32.0.
Users can update to Gotenberg version 8.32.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
