CVE-2026-46561: pyload-ng: SSRF via HTTP Redirect Bypass in parse_urls API

May 21, 2026 (updated June 9, 2026)

The SSRF mitigation added in commit 33c55da for GHSA-7gvf-3w72-p2pg is incomplete. The PREREQFUNCTION-based private IP check was correctly applied to HTTPChunk (download path) but not to HTTPRequest (used by the parse_urls API). An authenticated attacker can supply a URL pointing to an attacker-controlled server that responds with a 302 redirect to an internal/private IP address, bypassing the is_global_host() check on the initial URL.
