Details

Nanobot prior to version 0.2.1 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the Microsoft Teams channel handler that allows remote attackers to exfiltrate Bot Framework bearer tokens by supplying a forged activity with an attacker-controlled serviceUrl value. Attackers can poison the stored conversation reference by sending a crafted inbound activity to the Teams webhook, causing subsequent bot replies to transmit token-bearing Authorization header requests to an attacker-controlled host.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-04 12:30 – Updated: 2025-08-22 00:30
VLAI
Details

A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in the Bitdefender GravityZone Update Server when operating in Relay Mode. The HTTP proxy component on port 7074 uses a domain allowlist to restrict outbound requests, but fails to properly sanitize hostnames containing null-byte (%00) sequences. By crafting a request to a domain such as evil.com%00.bitdefender.com, an attacker can bypass the allowlist check, causing the proxy to forward requests to arbitrary external or internal systems.

Summary
Eclipse BaSyx Java Server SDK vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery
Details

In Eclipse BaSyx Java Server SDK versions prior to 2.0.0-milestone-10, the Operation Delegation feature fails to validate the destination URI of delegated requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this design flaw to force the BaSyx server to execute blind HTTP POST requests to arbitrary internal or external targets. This allows an attacker to bypass network segmentation and pivot into isolated internal IT/OT infrastructure or target Cloud Metadata services (IMDS).

  "details": "In Eclipse BaSyx Java Server SDK versions prior to 2.0.0-milestone-10, the Operation Delegation feature fails to validate the destination URI of delegated requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this design flaw to force the BaSyx server to execute blind HTTP POST requests to arbitrary internal or external targets. This allows an attacker to bypass network segmentation and pivot into isolated internal IT/OT infrastructure or target Cloud Metadata services (IMDS).",

Summary
OpenClaw: Hostname checks could treat trailing-dot hosts inconsistently
Details

Summary

Hostname checks could treat trailing-dot hosts inconsistently. In affected versions, a request path that accepts model- or workspace-derived URLs could present the same hostname with a trailing dot and avoid a blocklist comparison.

This advisory is scoped to the named feature and configuration. It does not change OpenClaw's trusted-operator model: authenticated Gateway operators, installed plugins, and intentional local execution surfaces remain trusted unless a separate policy, approval, allowlist, sandbox, or auth boundary is crossed.

Impact

When the affected feature is enabled and reachable, this could reach a destination that the operator expected the hostname policy to block. Practical impact depends on the operator's configuration and whether lower-trust input can reach that path.

Patched Versions

The first stable patched version is 2026.5.26.

Mitigations

keep private-network and metadata destinations blocked at the proxy or network layer until patched. As general hardening, keep channel and tool allowlists narrow, avoid sharing one Gateway between mutually untrusted users, and disable the affected feature when it is not needed.

CAPEC-664: Server Side Request Forgery

An adversary exploits improper input validation by submitting maliciously crafted input to a target application running on a server, with the goal of forcing the server to make a request either to itself, to web services running in the server’s internal network, or to external third parties. If successful, the adversary’s request will be made with the server’s privilege level, bypassing its authentication controls. This ultimately allows the adversary to access sensitive data, execute commands on the server’s network, and make external requests with the stolen identity of the server. Server Side Request Forgery attacks differ from Cross Site Request Forgery attacks in that they target the server itself, whereas CSRF attacks exploit an insecure user authentication mechanism to perform unauthorized actions on the user's behalf.
