Description
Misskey is an open source, federated social media platform. Prior to 2026.6.0, Misskey contains a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in URL preview functionality in UrlPreviewService. Due to missing network restrictions before establishing outbound connections, a remote attacker can cause the Misskey server to initiate HTTP requests to loopback, private, or link-local services. Because IP address validation takes place after the request has been sent and the process is subsequently rejected, no sensitive internal data is believed to be transmitted back or exposed to the attacker. This issue is fixed in version 2026.6.0.

Impact

Misskey contains a Server‑Side Request Forgery flaw in its URL preview feature. The flaw allows an attacker to craft a URL preview request that causes the Misskey server to make an outbound HTTP request to any target before performing IP address validation. Because the validation occurs only after the request is sent, the server can reach loopback, private, or link‑local addresses. However, the current implementation rejects the request once the address is identified, and no sensitive internal data is known to be returned by the server to the attacker. The vulnerability therefore primarily permits the server to contact internal services but does not expose any direct data leakage.

Affected Systems

All deployments of the Misskey open‑source social platform running a version earlier than 2026.6.0 are affected. The issue was fixed in the 2026.6.0 release, so any instance that has not applied this update remains vulnerable. The affected products are identified by the misskey‑dev:misskey CNA entry, and the vulnerability may impact any server hosting Misskey.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a very low probability of exploitation in the near term. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. The attack vector is remote; an attacker only needs to trigger the SSRF by submitting a malicious URL. Because the server is forced to contact internal addresses, the attacker could probe internal services, execute port scans, or bypass security controls that rely on outbound filtering. However, the lack of data exfiltration limits the immediate impact to reconnaissance or indirect exploitation via other weaknesses.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Install the 2026.6.0 patch or later from the Misskey releases page.
  • Add outbound network restrictions (firewall rules, proxy, or container network policies) that block HTTP requests to loopback (127.0.0.1, ::1), private (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16), or link‑local (169.254.0.0/16, fe80::/10) addresses before the request is initiated.
  • Configure the URL preview input validation to reject any URLs that resolve to internal network ranges prior to transmission.
  • Enable logging of outbound HTTP requests and monitor for unexpected internal target connections; investigate and alert on anomalous activity.
