SSRF via unsanitized translate TLD
Published Nov 24, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
SSRF in cjvnjde google-translate-api-browser before 4.1.3 allows remote attackers to send HTTPS GET requests to internal hosts. The generateRequestUrl function inserts translateOptions.tld into a translate.google hostname without validation, so an at-sign makes the prefix URL user information and selects an attacker-chosen host. Exploitation requires a consuming application to expose translateOptions and an HTTPS internal service reachable by GET; the demonstrated consequence is server-side request delivery.
