Internal resource disclosure via DNS rebinding race
Published May 7, 2026 · Updated May 7, 2026
Server-side request forgery in ellite Wallos 4.8.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read internal resources via DNS rebinding. The SSRF helper validates a hostname with gethostbyname(), but ten outbound cURL call sites resolve the original hostname again instead of pinning the checked IP. Low-privilege access and control of a rebinding DNS server are required; successful requests can expose internal APIs, localhost panels, or cloud metadata without modifying or interrupting them.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
