Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVE-2026-42860

Severity High
Score 8.5/10

Summary

The `sync_provider_data` endpoint in `SAMLProviderDataViewSet` fetches SAML metadata from a URL stored in `SAMLProviderConfig.metadata_source`. An authenticated user with the Enterprise Admin role can set this field to an arbitrary URL via the `SAMLProviderConfigViewSet` PATCH endpoint, then trigger a server-side HTTP request by calling `sync_provider_data`. The fetch in `fetch_metadata_xml()` passes the URL directly to `requests.get()` with no scheme enforcement, IP filtering, or timeout. This affects versions starting from 7.0.2 through 7.0.4.

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.
