MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Credential Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires authenticated low-privilege access (PR:L) to the Kameleo client-engine application's proxy-validation interface and some passive user interaction (UI:P), after which the attacker manipulates the host/port arguments passed to the InternalController.TestProxy function (file client-engine-application/f.cs) to force server-side requests. It affects Kameleo versions up to and including 5.0.1.26. Limiting factors: the attacker must reach and authenticate to the Kameleo API (which is typically a local client-engine API, so true remote exposure depends on how/where that API is bound), the UI:P interaction requirement, and that the vulnerable route no longer exists in 5.2.0. The exact trigger mechanism beyond manipulation of the host/port argument is not further detailed in the available sources. |
| Impact | This is a moderate, not urgent, issue. The CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.1 reflects a bounded server-side request forgery: the vendor vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N shows network reach and low complexity but requires low-level privileges (PR:L) and passive user interaction (UI:P), with only low impact to the vulnerable system and no subsequent-system (scope) impact. No EPSS score was supplied and the CVE is not on CISA KEV, so there is no evidence of active exploitation; exploitation status is best described as a public PoC reference existing but not verified as working exploit code. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' - meaningful but below act_now/emergency. The one tension worth flagging: the function lives in an 'InternalController' (InternalController.TestProxy) and Kameleo exposes a local client-engine API, so the PR:L/AV:N combination assumes an attacker can reach and authenticate to that API - verify the real network exposure of the Kameleo API in your deployment, because if the API is bound only to localhost the practical remote reachability is lower than AV:N alone implies. Overall this is a legitimate but low-to-moderate priority SSRF in a niche product, not a high-CVSS-but-no-real-risk false alarm and not a drop-everything emergency. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with authenticated access to the Kameleo client-engine API supplies attacker-chosen host and port values to the proxy-validation TestProxy endpoint, causing the Kameleo server-side component to initiate a connection to an internal address of the attacker's choosing (for example internal services or cloud metadata endpoints). A public PoC reference (a Google Drive folder) exists in the advisory, though it is not verified as working exploit code. The CVSS AV:N/AC:L profile makes the request itself easy to craft, but PR:L and UI:P mean low-privilege access and some user interaction are needed. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 26, 2026
Server-side request forgery in Kameleo's proxy-validation feature affects versions up to and including 5.0.1.26 and lets an authenticated low-privilege user who interacts with the proxy tester manipulate the host and port arguments of InternalController.TestProxy so the client-engine application issues requests to destinations of the attacker's choosing. The assessed impact is limited (CVSS 5.1; low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact), and exploitation requires access to the Kameleo client-engine API plus passive user interaction. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and there is no CISA KEV entry; upgrading to 5.2.0 removes the vulnerable route.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to Kameleo 5.2.0, where the vulnerable InternalController.TestProxy route has been removed and replaced by /general/test-proxy. Vendor-released patch: 5.2.0. Refer to https://github.com/kameleo-io/kameleo/releases/tag/5.2.0 and https://vuldb.com/vuln/426305. No workaround is documented in the available sources; the vendor remedy is to upgrade the affected component.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue is CWE-918, server-side request forgery, in the Proxy Validation component of Kameleo, specifically the InternalController.TestProxy function in client-engine-application/f.cs. Kameleo is a browser anti-detect and profile-management product whose client-engine exposes an API; the proxy tester is intended to validate proxy settings by making a server-side connection to a supplied host and port. Because the host/port argument can be manipulated, the server can be induced to connect to internal or otherwise unintended endpoints. The CVSS vector confirms the prerequisites: network reachability, low-privilege authentication (PR:L), and passive user interaction (UI:P). The vulnerable route was removed in 5.2.0 and replaced with /general/test-proxy. The supplied CPE is cpe:2.3:a:n/a:kameleo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, a wildcard entry that does not identify a specific platform or vendor beyond Kameleo. The exact trigger beyond manipulation of the host/port argument is not described in the available sources.

DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was determined in Kameleo up to 5.0.1.26. Affected is the function InternalController.TestProxy of the file client-engine-application/f.cs of the component Proxy Validation. Executing a manipulation of the argument host/port can lead to server-side request forgery. The attack may be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 5.2.0 is able to address this issue. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component. The route has been removed and replaced with /general/test-proxy in 5.2.0.
