CVE-2026-33693
MEDIUM
CVSS 6.5
No EPSS data
Description
Lemmy is a link aggregator and forum for the fediverse. Prior to version 0.7.0-beta.9, the `v4_is_invalid()` function in `activitypub-federation-rust` (`src/utils.rs`) does not check for `Ipv4Addr::UNSPECIFIED` (0.0.0.0). An unauthenticated attacker controlling a remote domain can point it to 0.0.0.0, bypass the SSRF protection introduced by the fix for CVE-2025-25194 (GHSA-7723-35v7-qcxw), and reach localhost services on the target server. Version 0.7.0-beta.9 patches the issue.
