SSRF via unnormalized IPv4-embedded IPv6 addresses
Published Jul 27, 2026 · Updated Jul 27, 2026
SSRF in ip-address 10.1.1 through 10.2.0 allows remote attackers to reach internal services via crafted IPv4-embedded IPv6 addresses. Address6 classifiers inspect the IPv6 wrapper without normalizing its embedded IPv4 address, causing internal targets to be labeled non-internal. Exploitation requires a consuming application to use these results for trust decisions; NAT64 routing also requires a NAT64/DNS64 gateway.

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.
