CVE-2022-22433Network attack vector

Authenticated SSRF via unvalidated API domain input

Published May 5, 2022 · Updated Sep 16, 2024

SSRF in IBM Robotic Process Automation 21.0.1 and 21.0.2 allows remote authenticated users to trigger server-side DNS or HTTP requests. An unspecified API fails to validate user-supplied domain names before passing them to DNS or HTTP request logic. High-privilege API access is required, and reachable internal systems can receive application-server requests.
