Description

CodeWhale before 0.8.64 contains a server-side request forgery bypass vulnerability in DNS pinning logic that fails to prevent time-of-check-time-of-use attacks. Attackers can manipulate DNS responses to fail initial resolution checks and succeed on secondary requests, allowing requests to internal IP addresses and bypassing SSRF mitigations.
