Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability is classified as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CWE-918), which allows attackers to make the server perform requests to unintended internal or external resources. In infiniflow/ragflow versions 0.12.0, the web_crawl function in document_app.py contains multiple vulnerabilities. The function does not filter URL parameters, allowing attackers to exploit Full Read SSRF by accessing internal network addresses and viewing their content through the generated PDF files. Additionally, the lack of restrictions on the file protocol enables Arbitrary File Read, allowing attackers to read server files. Furthermore, the use of an outdated Chromium headless version with --no-sandbox mode enabled makes the application susceptible to Remote Code Execution (RCE) via known Chromium v8 vulnerabilities. These issues are resolved in version 0.14.0. Affected products include: Infiniflow Ragflow. Version information: version 0.14.0..

Executive ViewAI
Organizations using infiniflow/ragflow face critical risk from CVE-2024-12450, a server-side request forgery vulnerability rated CVSS 9.8. Attackers could trick authenticated users into performing unintended actions, potentially modifying critical settings or data. Proof-of-concept code is publicly available, increasing the risk of exploitation. A patch is available and should be applied immediately given the critical severity.
Apply vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible: (1) Implement strict egress filtering; (2) Use allowlists for outbound connections; (3) Block access to cloud metadata endpoints.

Attack Technique
Server-Side Request Forgery exploits applications that fetch remote resources based on user-supplied URLs.
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
