DescriptionCVE.org

In JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2026.2.1 sSRF was possible via the OpenAPI preview proxy in untrusted projects

AnalysisAI

Server-Side Request Forgery in JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before version 2026.2.1 allows an attacker who supplies a malicious project to cause the IDE's OpenAPI preview proxy to issue HTTP requests to arbitrary internal or external endpoints. The scope change (S:C in CVSS) indicates the proxy can reach resources beyond the local machine, enabling internal network reconnaissance or credential harvesting from metadata services. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Craft malicious OpenAPI project file
Delivery
Deliver project to victim (phishing, repo, package)
Exploit
Victim opens project in IntelliJ IDEA
Execution
OpenAPI preview proxy issues SSRF request
Persist
Internal endpoint or metadata service responds
Impact
Attacker receives sensitive data

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the victim to open an untrusted project in IntelliJ IDEA - the crafted project must be loaded into the IDE, providing the 'User Interaction Required' (UI:R) condition. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.3 (Medium) is consistent with the vector: local delivery, no privileges required of the attacker, but mandatory user interaction and a scope change driving high confidentiality impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker crafts a malicious IntelliJ IDEA project containing an OpenAPI specification with server URLs pointing to an internal network endpoint - such as a cloud provider metadata service (e.g., http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/) or an internal CI/CD system. The victim clones or receives the project and opens it in IntelliJ IDEA, causing the OpenAPI preview proxy to issue an HTTP request to the attacker-controlled target. …
Remediation Upgrade IntelliJ IDEA to version 2026.2.1 or later, which contains the vendor-released fix as documented at https://www.jetbrains.com/privacy-security/issues-fixed/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
