Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVE-2024-43379

Severity Low
Score 3.1/10

Summary

TruffleHog is a secret scanning tool. In github.com/trufflesecurity/trufflehog package versions prior to 3.81.9 are vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). This flaw allows a malicious actor to craft data in a way that, when scanned by specific detectors, could trigger the detector to make an unauthorized request to an endpoint chosen by the attacker. For an exploit to be effective, the target endpoint must be an unauthenticated "GET" endpoint that produces side effects. The victim must scan the maliciously crafted data and have such an endpoint targeted for the exploit to succeed.

CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Server-side request forgery (SSRF) is a weakness that allows an attacker to send an arbitrary request, making it appear that the request was sent by the server. This request may bypass a firewall that would normally prevent direct access to the URL. The impact of this vulnerability can vary from unauthorized access to files and sensitive information to remote code execution.
