GHSA-6r7f-q7f5-wpx8
No affected components available
Impact
An authenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability existed in the upload functionality.
Authenticated users with create or update access to an upload-enabled collection could cause the server to make outbound HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs.
Consumers are affected if ALL of these are true:
- Payload version < v3.79.1
- At least one collection with
uploadenabled - An authenticated user has
createorupdateaccess to that collection
Patches
This vulnerability has been patched in v3.79.1. Users should upgrade to v3.79.1 or later.
Workarounds
Until consumers can upgrade:
- Restrict
createandupdateaccess to upload-enabled collections to trusted roles only. - Limit outbound network access from your Payload server where possible.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information.
Exploitation activity has been observed. Apply available patches or mitigations urgently.
