Exploitation Conditions

Requires a valid authenticated account on the Dockhand instance (CVSS PR:L) with the ability to create or submit stack templates to the API compose endpoint. The attacker must supply attacker-controlled repository URL and/or stackfile values that the server will fetch, and the compose endpoint must return the fetched body in its response field - this response-disclosing behavior is what makes the SSRF directly exploitable for data theft rather than blind. Exploitation is meaningfully amplified when Dockhand runs in a cloud environment with reachable instance-metadata endpoints or sensitive internal services on the server's network. Primary limiting factor: authentication is required (not unauthenticated); no user interaction or special non-default configuration is otherwise indicated. Affected: all versions before 1.0.43.

Impact

This is a genuine but conditional priority rather than a drop-everything emergency. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:H) scoring 8.4 (High) is internally consistent with the description: a network-reachable, low-complexity, response-disclosing SSRF that requires low-privilege authentication (PR:L) and yields high confidentiality impact on both the vulnerable system (VC:H) and a subsequent system (SC:H) - the latter reflecting access to internal services and cloud metadata beyond Dockhand itself. The standout risk is that this is a *response-disclosing* SSRF reaching cloud metadata endpoints (e.g., 169.254.169.254), which turns it into a direct credential/token theft primitive rather than a blind SSRF. Tempering factors: exploitation requires valid authentication (PR:L), so it is not an unauthenticated internet-facing bug, and there is no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit code referenced in the provided data - so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active or widespread exploitation. No signals conflict here; the main caveat is simply that exploitation-probability telemetry (EPSS/KEV/POC) is entirely absent, so prioritization rests on impact and ease rather than observed activity.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated low-privilege user of a Dockhand instance submits a stack template whose repository URL or stackfile value points at an internal address such as the cloud instance metadata endpoint. Dockhand's server fetches that URL and returns the fetched content in the compose response field, letting the attacker read internal service data and harvest cloud credentials or tokens. No public exploit code is referenced, but the low attack complexity (AC:L) means a working request is trivial to craft once authenticated.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 13, 2026

Finsys Dockhand before 1.0.43 turns authenticated stack-template submission into a server-side data-theft primitive: an attacker-supplied repository URL or stackfile value is fetched by the server and the fetched body is echoed back in the compose response field, so internal services and cloud instance-metadata endpoints can be read directly rather than probed blindly. Any holder of a valid Dockhand account with the ability to create or submit stack templates to the API compose endpoint can exploit this, and the impact grows sharply where the instance has reachable IMDS or sensitive internal services on its network. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and the vendor has released version 1.0.43 as the fix; the 8.4 score reflects high confidentiality impact tempered by the requirement for an authenticated account.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: Finsys Dockhand 1.0.43 - upgrade all instances below this version immediately, per GHSA-f2mx-74xq-g4p9 (https://github.com/Finsys/dockhand/security/advisories/GHSA-f2mx-74xq-g4p9) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/dockhand-before-1.0.43-ssrf-via-api-templates-compose-endpoint). Where immediate upgrade is not possible, apply compensating controls knowing the prerequisite is an authenticated account: restrict the ability to create or submit stack templates and access the API compose endpoint to a small, trusted set of accounts (side effect: it blocks legitimate self-service template workflows and does not stop a malicious insider); enforce host-level egress filtering on the Dockhand server to deny outbound traffic to 169.254.169.254/link-local, loopback, and RFC1918/metadata ranges (side effect: legitimate remote repository fetches to internal Git hosts or proxies will break and must be explicitly allowlisted); and on cloud hosts enforce IMDSv2-only with a low hop limit or disable instance metadata where unused (side effect: legacy IMDSv1-dependent agents and sidecar tooling may fail). Isolate Dockhand on a dedicated network segment with no route to management or database subnets to reduce the value of any residual SSRF.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause is CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery): Dockhand's compose/stack ingestion path accepts user-supplied repository URL and stackfile values and performs the outbound fetch server-side without validating, allowlisting, or blocking destinations. Because the compose endpoint returns the fetched content in its response 'compose' field, the SSRF is response-disclosing instead of blind, which converts a reachability issue into a straightforward read primitive against 169.254.169.254 instance metadata, loopback, and RFC1918-range internal services, exposing cloud credentials, IAM tokens, and internal API responses. Per the assessed vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N), exploitation requires a valid authenticated account (PR:L) able to reach the compose endpoint - it is not unauthenticated - with no user interaction and no special non-default configuration indicated, and all versions prior to 1.0.43 are affected per the EUVD range 'dockhand 0 <1.0.43'.

DescriptionCVE.org

Finsys Dockhand before 1.0.43 contains a response-disclosing server-side request forgery vulnerability that allows authenticated users to make the server fetch arbitrary URLs by supplying repository URL and stackfile values. Attackers can send stack templates pointing to internal services or cloud metadata endpoints and read the fetched content from the compose response field, exposing credentials and tokens.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Finsys Dockhand instances running versions earlier than 1.0.43 let any user holding a valid account turn ordinary stack-template submissions into a data-theft channel, pulling internal service responses and cloud instance-metadata content back through the API. Because the server performs the fetch and returns the body, an insider or compromised low-privilege account can quietly harvest credentials and internal data that network segmentation would normally shield. Leadership should treat this as a credential-exposure risk wherever Dockhand can reach cloud metadata endpoints or sensitive internal systems, and prioritize the vendor's 1.0.43 update.
