Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a valid tenant administrator account with Management API credentials (CVSS PR:H). The attacker must be able to call the OIDC SSO connector creation endpoint via the Management API; neither unauthenticated access nor low-privilege tenant user accounts are sufficient. No additional product configuration is required on the attacker side - supplying an arbitrary URL as the issuer parameter is sufficient to trigger the outbound request. The range of reachable internal services depends on the network topology of the Logto deployment: cloud-hosted instances face the highest risk due to cloud metadata endpoint exposure, while air-gapped or tightly network-segmented deployments have a reduced but non-zero internal reconnaissance surface.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.2 is driven by network accessibility (AV:N), high confidentiality impact on both the vulnerable system (VC:H) and subsequent systems on the internal network (SC:H), partially offset by the high-privilege prerequisite (PR:H). The PR:H constraint is a genuine and meaningful limiting factor: exploitation requires tenant-admin credentials with Management API access, not a low-privilege or unauthenticated path. In single-tenant self-hosted deployments this typically means a compromised administrator account; in multi-tenant SaaS scenarios it could mean a malicious tenant probing shared host infrastructure. The cloud metadata endpoint exposure (169.254.169.254) is the highest-severity impact channel in cloud-hosted environments, where successful probing can yield IAM credentials and escalate to full cloud account compromise. No EPSS data was provided and the vulnerability is not in CISA KEV, indicating no confirmed widespread exploitation at time of analysis. Despite the authentication requirement, the cloud-metadata angle elevates real-world priority for any cloud-hosted Logto deployment significantly above what PR:H alone would suggest.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A tenant administrator with Management API access submits a connector creation request specifying http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/ as the OIDC issuer URL. Logto performs the outbound GET without filtering the destination and returns the cloud IAM credential response body in the API error payload, giving the attacker valid cloud provider credentials. The same technique applies to RFC 1918 service endpoints - for example, targeting an internal Kubernetes API server or a database admin interface accessible on the deployment's private network.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 28, 2026

Server-side request forgery in Logto through 1.42.0 allows tenant administrators holding Management API credentials to read responses from arbitrary internal network services by supplying attacker-controlled URLs as the OIDC SSO connector issuer parameter. The vulnerable surface extends beyond the SSO connector endpoint to webhook delivery and SAML IdP metadata fetching, each of which accepted tenant-supplied URLs without filtering loopback, RFC 1918, or cloud metadata (169.254.169.254) destinations. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; a patch is available upstream via commit 16f4b2e7.

RemediationAI

The upstream fix is confirmed in commit 16f4b2e732d5114ac98646c9370ec6ab61d6ed26 (https://github.com/logto-io/logto/commit/16f4b2e732d5114ac98646c9370ec6ab61d6ed26); the exact first patched release version is not confirmed from the provided data, so administrators should upgrade to the latest Logto release published after 1.42.0 and verify its changelog references this commit. The patch enables SSRF protection by default across all outbound request paths, blocking loopback, private-range, link-local, shared-address-space, and cloud metadata (169.254.169.254) destinations at connection time with redirect-hop re-validation. For deployments that legitimately route webhooks or SSO endpoints through private networks, set SSRF_ALLOWED_ADDRESSES to a comma-separated list of trusted IP addresses or CIDR ranges (e.g., SSRF_ALLOWED_ADDRESSES=10.0.0.0/8) before starting Logto; note that configuring this allowlist disables the CIMD feature as a vendor-documented trade-off. Setting SSRF_PROTECTION_DISABLED=true disables all SSRF protection and also disables CIMD entirely - this is not recommended for production. The legacy OIDC_PROVIDER_SSRF_PROTECTION_DISABLED variable continues to function as an alias for SSRF_PROTECTION_DISABLED.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Logto is an open-source OIDC-based identity and access management platform (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:logto-io:logto:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The OIDC SSO connector flow uses OpenID Connect discovery, fetching issuer/.well-known/openid-configuration before persisting the connector. Prior to the fix, packages/core/src/sso/OidcConnector/utils.ts performed this outbound HTTP GET without validating whether the resolved destination was a special-use address. CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery) precisely describes this pattern: a URL derived from user-controlled input is used to construct an outbound request without filtering private, loopback, link-local, or cloud-metadata destinations. The commit diff confirms the scope was broader than originally described - the same missing validation applied to webhook delivery (including POST /api/hooks/:id/test), token and userinfo endpoint requests, and SAML IdP metadata fetching. The fix introduced a per-connection check that rejects special-use IPs at connection time and re-checks every redirect hop, covering hostname-based bypasses.

DescriptionCVE.org

Logto through 1.42.0 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the OIDC SSO connector creation endpoint that fails to validate the issuer URL parameter. Tenant administrators with Management API credentials can supply arbitrary internal URLs to trigger HTTP GET requests to private network services, with response content returned in API responses.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Logto versions through 1.42.0 contain a server-side request forgery vulnerability that enables tenant administrators with Management API credentials to read responses from internal network services, including cloud metadata endpoints. This directly exposes sensitive infrastructure data, internal application responses, and cloud credentials that should not be accessible to tenant accounts. Organizations must patch immediately to prevent unauthorized access to backend systems and cloud resources.
