Unauthenticated SSRF via unvalidated remote endpoint
Published Aug 11, 2026 · Updated Aug 11, 2026
SSRF in SeaweedFS before 4.24 allows remote attackers to read responses from arbitrary hosts through an unauthenticated volume-server RPC. VolumeServer.FetchAndWriteNeedle passes a caller-supplied endpoint to the S3 remote-storage client without authentication or destination validation and returns the fetched data. Reachability to the volume server's gRPC port is sufficient; default deployments expose the RPC without credentials, enabling access to internal services and cloud metadata.

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.
