Description
Frappe Builder versions before 1.36.1 contain a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the convert_to_webp API endpoint, which lacks the has_page_write access control applied to similar asset-ingest handlers and performs an unprotected requests.get call that follows redirects without re-validating resolved IP addresses. A low-privilege authenticated user can supply an image_url pointing to an internal address or use DNS rebinding and open redirects to make the server fetch internal network resources or cloud metadata endpoints, with successful image responses saved to a world-readable /files/ URL enabling data exfiltration or blind probing of internal hosts.

AI Analysis

Impact

Frappe Builder versions before 1.36.1 expose a server‑side request forgery flaw in the convert_to_webp API. The endpoint accepts an image_url parameter, performs an unauthenticated HTTP GET that follows redirects without re‑validating the resulting IP address, and stores the image in a publicly readable /files/ location. This allows a low‑privilege authenticated user to point the request at internal network resources or cloud metadata endpoints, enabling data exfiltration or blind probing of internal hosts.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Frappe Builder, any installation running a version earlier than 1.36.1 is vulnerable. The vulnerability is reported for the 'frappe:builder' suite.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.3 indicates a medium severity vulnerability. No EPSS score is available, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Because the flaw requires only a low‑privilege authenticated user and relies on an external request without proper authorization or IP validation, the likelihood of exploitation is moderate. Attackers could generate internal requests, retrieve files, and store them on the public file server, effectively leaking internal data or enabling further internal reconnaissance.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to Frappe Builder version 1.36.1 or later.
  • Restrict world‑readable permissions on the /files/ directory so that saved images are not publicly accessible.
  • Implement input validation in convert_to_webp to permit only allowed domains and verify the destination IP after redirects.
