2DescriptionCVE.org
A legacy endpoint in Command Center contained an unauthenticated server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability related to the handling of arbitrary target URLs. Software customers upgrade to resolved maintenance release. Update Command Center.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated server-side request forgery in Commvault Command Center's legacy endpoint allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause the server to issue HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs, exposing internal services, cloud metadata endpoints, and credentials accessible from the Command Center's privileged network position. All versions of Commvault Cloud are indicated as affected per wildcard CPE, with Commvault releasing a resolved maintenance release per advisory CV_2026_07_5. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing is present, but the CVSS 4.0 score of 8.8 with no authentication or precondition requirements makes this a high-priority remediation target in enterprise environments.
Technical ContextAI
Commvault Command Center is the centralized web-based management console for Commvault's enterprise backup and data protection platform. The vulnerable legacy endpoint accepts user-supplied target URLs and initiates outbound HTTP requests server-side without validating or restricting the destination - the canonical Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) pattern, typically aligned with CWE-918, though no CWE was formally assigned in NVD data. SSRF in an enterprise backup management plane is particularly impactful because Command Center frequently has trusted network access to storage targets, backup agents, internal APIs, and - in cloud deployments - instance metadata services such as AWS IMDSv1 (169.254.169.254), which can yield temporary IAM credentials. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) confirms the endpoint is reachable over the network with no authentication, no complexity, and no attack technique prerequisites, resulting in high confidentiality impact to the vulnerable system itself.
RemediationAI
Commvault has released a resolved maintenance release for Command Center addressing this vulnerability; customers should upgrade to the patched version as described in advisory CV_2026_07_5 at https://documentation.commvault.com/securityadvisories/CV_2026_07_5.html. The exact fixed version number is not disclosed in available NVD or CPE data and must be retrieved directly from the Commvault advisory. As a compensating control until patching is complete, restrict outbound (egress) network access from the Command Center host to explicitly whitelisted backup infrastructure, blocking outbound connections to RFC-1918 ranges not required for backup operations and to cloud metadata endpoints such as 169.254.169.254 - note that overly broad egress blocks may interrupt legitimate backup workflows and should be validated in a non-production environment first. Additionally, enforce strict network perimeter controls to ensure Command Center is not exposed to untrusted networks or the public internet.
