Cloud metadata disclosure via unvalidated download URLs
Published Mar 27, 2026 · Updated Mar 27, 2026
SSRF in pyLoad before 0.5.0b3.dev97 allows remote authenticated users to read internal services through submitted download URLs. The /api/addPackage endpoint passes user-supplied links to BaseDownloader.download, which initiates requests without rejecting private or link-local destinations. Any account with package-add permission can reach services available to the host, including cloud metadata endpoints that expose infrastructure data and credentials.
