Lifecycle Timeline
8DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Squidex is an open source headless content management system and content management hub. Versions prior to 7.23.0 have a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability due to missing SSRF protection on the Jint HTTP client used by scripting engine functions (getJSON, request, etc.). An authenticated user with low privileges (e.g., schema editing permissions) can force the server to make arbitrary outbound HTTP requests to attacker-controlled or internal endpoints. This allows access to internal services and cloud metadata endpoints (e.g., IMDS), potentially leading to credential exposure and lateral movement. Version 7.23.0 contains a fix.
AnalysisAI
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Squidex versions before 7.23.0 allows authenticated users with schema editing permissions to force the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests to internal services and cloud metadata endpoints through the Jint scripting engine. The vulnerability can expose cloud provider credentials (e.g., AWS IMDS) and enable lateral movement within internal networks. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Attacker must possess authenticated access to the Squidex instance with schema editing permissions (PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | CVSS 4.0 score of 7.3 reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact to the vulnerable system (VC:H/VI:H) with network attack vector and low complexity (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated attacker with schema editing permissions creates a custom content schema in Squidex and adds a scripting rule that calls getJSON('http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/') to retrieve AWS IAM role credentials from the instance metadata service. The Squidex server executes this script during content processing, making the SSRF request and returning temporary AWS credentials to the attacker. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade to Squidex version 7.23.0 or later, which includes SSRF protection for the Jint HTTP client as documented in GitHub commit b81d75e1d9c1a8e30993c2ee59b350002b9aeda4 (https://github.com/Squidex/squidex/commit/b81d75e1d9c1a8e30993c2ee59b350002b9aeda4). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
