| Exploitation Conditions | The vulnerability requires that the AgentScope multi-modality OpenAI tools component is deployed and accessible to the attacker (network-reachable endpoint). No authentication is required (PR:N in CVSS). The vulnerability is triggered when an attacker provides a specially crafted image_url or audio_file_url parameter to the _parse_url, prepare_image, or openai_audio_to_text functions. These functions must be exposed via an API endpoint (HTTP/REST or similar). Default AgentScope deployments that include the multi-modality toolkit are affected unless the affected functions have been explicitly disabled or restricted via access controls. The vulnerability does NOT require special configuration, non-default settings, or user interaction - any instance with these functions enabled and network-accessible is exploitable. |
| Impact | CVSS 6.9 with AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N indicates network-accessible exploitation with no authentication or user interaction required. EPSS designation as 'E:P' (publicly available exploit) elevates practical risk beyond the base score. The low attack complexity (AC:L) and lack of authentication requirements (PR:N) make this readily exploitable by any remote attacker. While the CVSS impact scope is limited (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L with SC:N), the SSRF nature enables information disclosure of internal service responses, potential lateral movement to internal systems, and interaction with restricted endpoints. Real-world risk is significant because: (1) publicly available exploit code removes barriers to exploitation, (2) no vendor patch appears available despite early disclosure contact, and (3) SSRF vulnerabilities targeting cloud deployments frequently enable metadata endpoint abuse. The vulnerability is not listed as actively exploited in CISA KEV at publication time, but public PoC availability suggests imminent widespread scanning and targeted exploitation attempts. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker sends a POST request to an AgentScope instance with a malicious image_url parameter pointing to an internal service, such as http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data (AWS metadata endpoint) or http://localhost:8080/admin/config. The vulnerable _parse_url or prepare_image function processes this URL without validation and makes a server-side HTTP request to fetch the resource. The attacker receives the response containing sensitive metadata, internal configuration, or credentials that the server can access, enabling further lateral movement or privilege escalation. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 20, 2026
Server-side request forgery (SSRF) in ModelScope AgentScope up to version 1.0.18 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to manipulate image_url and audio_file_url parameters in the _parse_url, prepare_image, and openai_audio_to_text functions, enabling arbitrary HTTP requests from the affected server. The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and affects the Cloud Metadata Endpoint component. The vendor has not responded to early disclosure attempts, and exploitation is confirmed to be possible with low attack complexity.
RemediationAI
Upgrade AgentScope to a version newer than 1.0.18 if a patched release becomes available from the ModelScope project. Until a vendor patch is released, implement the following compensating controls: (1) Restrict network access to the OpenAI tools endpoints using firewall rules or API gateway policies - allow only trusted internal services to invoke _parse_url, prepare_image, and openai_audio_to_text functions; (2) Implement strict URL validation and whitelisting in the application layer - validate that image_url and audio_file_url parameters match an allowlist of trusted domains (e.g., OpenAI CDN, specific customer domains) before processing; (3) Use a network-level outbound proxy with restrictive rules to prevent the server from accessing internal metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254), private RFC1918 ranges, and loopback addresses; (4) Deploy rate limiting and request logging on these endpoints to detect anomalous URL patterns indicative of SSRF exploitation attempts. Each control has tradeoffs: whitelisting may limit legitimate use cases and require maintenance; outbound filtering may impact legitimate multi-modal features if they require external resource fetching. Monitor the ModelScope GitHub repository and security advisories for patched releases.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability exists in src/agentscope/tool/_multi_modality/_openai_tools.py where URL parameters (image_url and audio_file_url) are processed without proper validation before being used in server-side HTTP requests. This is a classic SSRF vulnerability (CWE-918) where user-controlled input is directly used to construct URLs for backend server requests. The affected functions (_parse_url, prepare_image, openai_audio_to_text) are part of AgentScope's multi-modality toolkit designed to handle OpenAI audio and image processing via cloud endpoints. By manipulating these URL parameters, an attacker can cause the server to make requests to arbitrary destinations, including internal networks, metadata services, or other restricted resources that the server has access to.

Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was identified in modelscope agentscope up to 1.0.18. Affected by this issue is the function _parse_url/prepare_image/openai_audio_to_text of the file src/agentscope/tool/_multi_modality/_openai_tools.py of the component Cloud Metadata Endpoint. Such manipulation of the argument image_url/audio_file_url leads to server-side request forgery. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
