CVE-2021-25939: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

February 9, 2022 (updated February 11, 2022)

In ArangoDB, versions v3.7.0 through v3.9.0-alpha.1 have a feature which allows downloading a Foxx service from a publicly available URL. This feature does not enforce proper filtering of requests performed internally, which can be abused by a highly-privileged attacker to perform blind SSRF and send internal requests to localhost.
