Authenticated internal-service access via arbitrary API URLs
Published Jul 22, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
SSRF in Bernhard Kux Get Use APIs – JSON Content Importer 1.5.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to reach internal services. The plugin's API-URL retrieval path sends contributor-supplied destinations from the WordPress server without restricting destinations; public records do not identify the exact handler. Contributor-level access is required, and successful requests can query or modify data exposed by internal services.
