Title
NASA earthdata-search scale Endpoint handler.js scaleImage server-side request forgery
Summary
A vulnerability was detected in NASA earthdata-search 1.0.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function scaleImage of the file serverless/src/scaleImage/handler.js of the component scale Endpoint. Performing a manipulation results in server-side request forgery. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
