Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026
Homebox prior to 0.24.0-rc.1 allows authenticated users to trigger HTTP POST requests to arbitrary destinations through the notifier feature without host or port validation, enabling attackers to enumerate internal services by observing application behavior differences based on network responses. The vulnerability affects all users with authentication access to the notifier functionality and carries a medium risk due to its reliance on behavioral side-channels rather than direct information disclosure.
