OESA-2022-1887 (CVE-2020-28463)
Vulnerability from osv_openeuler – Published: 2022-09-02 11:05 – Updated: 2026-08-06 11:05 – Source websiteThe ReportLab Toolkit. An Open Source Python library for generating PDFs and graphics.
Security Fix(es):
All versions of package reportlab are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via img tags. In order to reduce risk, use trustedSchemes & trustedHosts (see in Reportlab's documentation) Steps to reproduce by Karan Bamal: 1. Download and install the latest package of reportlab 2. Go to demos -> odyssey -> dodyssey 3. In the text file odyssey.txt that needs to be converted to pdf inject <img src="http://127.0.0.1:5000" valign="top"/> 4. Create a nc listener nc -lp 5000 5. Run python3 dodyssey.py 6. You will get a hit on your nc showing we have successfully proceded to send a server side request 7. dodyssey.py will show error since there is no img file on the url, but we are able to do SSRF(CVE-2020-28463)
