Authenticated internal-service access via arbitrary requests
Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Server-side request forgery in MakeStories (for Google Web Stories) 3.0.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to query internal services. Public advisories do not identify the vulnerable function or parameter, but report that attacker-supplied destinations are requested by the WordPress server. Author-level access is required, and the requests can reach arbitrary or internal services to read or modify exposed data.
