Summary

Strapi allows Server-Side Request Forgery in Webhook function

Details

Description

In Strapi latest version, at function Settings -> Webhooks, the application allows us to input a URL in order to create a Webook connection. However, we can input into this field the local domains such as localhost, 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0,.... in order to make the Application fetching into the internal itself, which causes the vulnerability Server - Side Request Forgery (SSRF).

Payloads

http://127.0.0.1:80 -> The Port is not open
http://127.0.0.1:1337 -> The Port which Strapi is running on

Steps to Reproduce

First of all, let's input the URL http://127.0.0.1:80 into the URL field, and click "Save".

CleanShot 2024-06-04 at 22 45 17@2x

Next, use the "Trigger" function and use Burp Suite to capture the request / response

CleanShot 2024-06-04 at 22 47 50@2x

The server return request to http://127.0.0.1/ failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:80, BECAUSE the Port 80 is not open, since we are running Strapi on Port 1337, let's change the URL we input above into http://127.0.0.1:1337

CleanShot 2024-06-04 at 22 50 13@2x

Continue to click the "Trigger" function, use Burp to capture the request / response

CleanShot 2024-06-04 at 22 53 25@2x

The server returns Method Not Allowed, which means that there actually is a Port 1337 running the machine.

Impact

If there is a real server running Strapi with many ports open, by using this SSRF vulnerability, the attacker can brute-force through all 65535 ports to know what ports are open.

Severity

4.9 (Medium)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-05-29 09:02 – Updated: 2025-05-29 13:44

Title

Strapi allows Server-Side Request Forgery in Webhook function

Summary

Strapi is an open-source content management system. Prior to version 4.25.2, inputting a local domain into the Webhooks URL field leads to the application fetching itself, resulting in a server side request forgery (SSRF). This issue has been patched in version 4.25.2.

Severity

4.9 (Medium)

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
