DescriptionCVE.org

knowns through 0.33.0 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the POST /api/embedding-models/test endpoint that issues outbound requests to caller-supplied destinations without validation. Attackers can enumerate internal hosts and cloud metadata endpoints by observing transport error messages that reveal network reachability information.

AnalysisAI

Server-side request forgery in Knowns ≤0.33.0 enables unauthenticated remote attackers to make the server issue outbound HTTP requests to arbitrary caller-supplied destinations via the POST /api/embedding-models/test endpoint. The application leaks network reachability information through transport-layer error messages, allowing attackers to enumerate internal hosts, cloud metadata services (e.g., AWS IMDSv1 at 169.254.169.254), and adjacent services. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The vulnerable endpoint POST /api/embedding-models/test must be reachable by the attacker - no authentication is required per the CVSS 4.0 PR:N metric. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 (Medium) reflects that exploitation is trivial in terms of access (AV:N, AC:L, PR:N, UI:N) but impact is bounded (VC:L, VI:L). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Consult the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/knowns-dev/knowns/security/advisories/GHSA-qx9v-m9gg-p5jg for a patched release; no specific fixed version number is stated in the available input data, so administrators should monitor the repository for a release tagged beyond v0.33.0. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
