Unauthenticated network enumeration via unvalidated speedtest URL
Published Dec 10, 2025 · Updated Dec 10, 2025
Server-side request forgery in BrightSign Diagnostic Web Server 8.2.26 and earlier allows remote attackers to probe internal network services. The Download Speed Test endpoint passes its unvalidated url GET parameter to an outbound HTTP request, allowing an arbitrary destination host. The endpoint is reachable without authentication when local DWS access is exposed, enabling service enumeration behind the player's network boundary.
