AnalysisAI
Server-side request forgery in Aider-AI Aider 0.86.3 allows authenticated remote attackers to make the application issue arbitrary HTTP requests to internal network resources, including cloud infrastructure metadata endpoints such as the AWS EC2 instance metadata service at 169.254.169.254. The URL scraping component accepts user-supplied URLs without validating whether the destination resolves to private RFC1918 or link-local address space, enabling an attacker to proxy requests through the Aider host. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a low-privilege authenticated session with the Aider instance, confirmed by the CVSS PR:L vector - unauthenticated exploitation is not possible based on available data. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The base CVSS score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) reflects low-privilege authenticated exploitation with no interaction required over the network at low complexity. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated Aider user with any low-privilege account submits a scrape request with the URL `http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/` through Aider's normal web-content scraping interface. Aider issues the HTTP request from its host, retrieves the AWS IAM role credentials attached to the EC2 instance, and returns them to the attacker. … |
| Remediation | Apply the upstream fix from PR #5137 (https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider/pull/5137) once it is merged and a tagged release is cut; a formally released patched version number has not been confirmed in the available data, so monitor the repository for the merge and subsequent release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
