Description
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in gabehf/Koito through v0.3.2 allows an authenticated user to make the server perform HTTP requests to arbitrary internal or external hosts by supplying a crafted image_url value in the PATCH /apis/web/v1/album/{id}/image endpoint.

Impact

According to the revised description, the Koito photo‑management application (v0.3.2) contains a server‑side request forgery flaw that allows an authenticated user to send a PATCH request to /apis/web/v1/album/{id}/image and supply a crafted image_url value. The server downloads the specified URL without validating the host, enabling the attacker to force HTTP requests to arbitrary internal or external addresses, thereby potentially leaking sensitive data or serving as an entry point for further compromise. This is a classic example of CWE‑918.

Affected Systems

Koito by gabehf is affected when running version 0.3.2 and earlier; the vulnerability is confined to the web API that updates album images. No other product or version is listed as susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.7 signals high severity. EPSS is not available, and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV, indicating no known active exploits yet. Based on the updated description, it is inferred that the attacker must be authenticated; the vulnerable endpoint accepts a crafted image_url in an authenticated PATCH request, forcing the server to perform requests to any host, including internal ones, which could leak data or serve as an attack surface for lateral movement.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Koito to a patched release that validates or removes the vulnerable endpoint.
  • Restrict the Koito server’s outbound network access with firewall rules or network segmentation so it cannot reach private, loopback, or internal addresses.
  • Implement server‑side checks that reject or sanitize URLs pointing to private IP ranges or loopback addresses before fetching.
  • If a patch is unavailable, configure the application to allow only a whitelist of approved hostnames or IP ranges for the image_url parameter.
