Internal service discovery via IPv6 SSRF bypass
Published Jul 10, 2026 · Updated Jul 10, 2026
Server-side request forgery in Mailpit before 1.30.2 allows remote attackers to map internal service reachability through the Link Check API. The safeDialContext path trusts tools.IsInternalIP, whose standard-library predicates fail to reject NAT64, 6to4, ISATAP, IPv4-compatible, and reserved IPv6 forms. The default deployment permits unauthenticated email delivery and API access; returned status and error data reveal reachability but not response bodies.

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.
