CVE-2026-72904Network attack vector

Authenticated file disclosure via external schema references

Published Aug 10, 2026 · Updated Aug 10, 2026

Arbitrary file read in Firecrawl before 2.11.32 allows remote authenticated users to expose worker files through the extraction API. The extraction helper passes user-supplied schemas to json-schema-ref-parser with file and HTTP resolvers enabled, including references hidden in default, const, or enum fields. Any API account, including a free-tier account, can trigger an error that persists and returns readable file contents or causes requests to internal and external endpoints.
