CVE-2026-41170 PUBLISHED

Squidex has SSRF via Backup Restore Endpoint — Admin-Controlled URL Download Allows Internal and External Requests

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 17.04.2026 Published: 22.04.2026 Updated: 22.04.2026

Squidex is an open source headless content management system and content management hub. Prior to version 7.23.0, the RestoreController.PostRestoreJob endpoint allows an administrator to supply an arbitrary URL for downloading backup archives. This URL is fetched using the "Backup" HttpClient without any SSRF protection. A malicious or compromised admin can use this endpoint to probe internal network services, access cloud metadata endpoints, or perform internal reconnaissance. The vulnerability is authenticated (Admin-only) but highly impactful, allowing potential access to sensitive internal resources. Version 7.23.0 contains a fix.
