CVE-2026-77087
Paperclip before 0.3.1 in default local_trusted mode fails to validate Host headers, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via DNS rebinding.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Paperclip before 0.3.1 in default local_trusted mode fails to validate Host headers, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands via DNS rebinding. An attacker can craft a malicious webpage that, when visited by a developer running Paperclip locally, uses DNS rebinding to make authenticated API requests and execute commands through the process adapter.
