DescriptionGitHub Advisory

SillyTavern is a locally installed user interface that allows users to interact with text generation large language models, image generation engines, and text-to-speech voice models. In versions prior to 1.16.0, a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the asset download endpoint allows authenticated users to make arbitrary HTTP requests from the server and read the full response body, enabling access to internal services, cloud metadata, and private network resources. The vulnerability has been patched in the version 1.16.0 by introducing a whitelist domain check for asset download requests. It can be reviewed and customized by editing the whitelistImportDomains array in the config.yaml file.

AnalysisAI

SillyTavern versions before 1.16.0 contain a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the asset download endpoint that allows authenticated users to make arbitrary HTTP requests from the server and access internal services, cloud metadata, and private network resources. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, which can be mitigated by upgrading to version 1.16.0 or configuring domain whitelisting in the config.yaml file.
