CVE-2026-65318
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Verba RAG application version 2.1.3 contains an unauthenticated server-side request forgery vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to cause the backend to issue arbitrary HTTP GET requests by supplying attacker-controlled URLs through the WebSocket import endpoint. Attackers can connect to the /ws/import_files WebSocket endpoint without authentication, specify arbitrary URLs in the HTMLReader configuration, and cause the server to fetch internal resources such as co-located database endpoints or cloud instance metadata services to retrieve sensitive credentials.

"value": "La aplicación Verba RAG versión 2.1.3 contiene una vulnerabilidad de falsificación de petición del lado del servidor no autenticada que permite a atacantes no autenticados hacer que el backend emita peticiones HTTP GET arbitrarias al proporcionar URLs controladas por el atacante a través del punto final de importación de WebSocket. Los atacantes pueden conectarse al punto final WebSocket /ws/import_files sin autenticación, especificar URLs arbitrarias en la configuración de HTMLReader y hacer que el servidor obtenga recursos internos como puntos finales de bases de datos colocalizadas o servicios de metadatos de instancias en la nube para recuperar credenciales sensibles."
