Description
Roundcube Webmail 1.6.14 before 1.6.20 and 1.7.0 before 1.7.5 is affected by a server-side request forgery filter bypass. The network blocklist used by rcube_utils::is_local_url() omitted the RFC 6052 NAT64 prefix 64:ff9b::/96, the RFC 8215 local-use NAT64 prefix 64:ff9b:1::/48 and the unspecified address ::/128, so URLs such as http://[64:ff9b::7f00:1]/ passed the filter and reached loopback, link-local and cloud metadata addresses. Upstream fixed this in the commit “Fix SSRF filter (is_local_url()) bypass via NAT64 64:ff9b::/96”.

AI Analysis

Impact

Roundcube Webmail prior to 1.6.20 and 1.7.5 contains a server‑side request forgery vulnerability that arises from a bypass of the is_local_url() filter. URLs containing the NAT64 prefixes 64:ff9b::/96 and 64:ff9b:1::/48, as well as the unspecified address ::/128, are incorrectly considered local, allowing the application to fetch internal resources such as loopback, link‑local, and cloud metadata endpoints. An attacker can thereby cause Roundcube to issue requests to addresses that were intended to be unreachable, potentially exposing internal services or gathering network information.

Affected Systems

The flaw affects Roundcube Webmail versions 1.6.14 through 1.6.19 and 1.7.0 through 1.7.4. All users of these releases are susceptible until the vendor releases 1.6.20 or later and 1.7.5 or later, which patch the is_local_url() function to block the aforementioned prefixes.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.2 reflects a high potential impact. With no EPSS data available, the probability of exploitation cannot be precisely quantified, but the fact that the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog does not reduce its seriousness for systems exposed to user input. Remote attackers who can supply or influence URLs used by Roundcube have a straightforward network‑based attack path that can reach internal loopback or cloud metadata endpoints, enabling information disclosure or further lateral movement.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Roundcube to version 1.6.20 or newer, or 1.7.5 or newer, which fixes the SSRF filter bypass.
  • Apply network‑level controls on the server hosting Roundcube to block outbound connections to loopback (127.0.0.1), link‑local, and NAT64 addresses, ensuring that even a compromised installation cannot reach internal endpoints.
  • If an upgrade is delayed, isolate Roundcube behind a reverse proxy that validates URLs and blocks suspicious address patterns or disable any interface that allows arbitrary URL traffic until the patch is applied.
