CVE-2026-86259
OpenMAIC before 1.0.1 skips server-side request forgery validation in non-production builds, allowing unauthenticated attackers to reach cloud instance metadata services.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
OpenMAIC before 1.0.1 skips server-side request forgery validation in non-production builds, allowing unauthenticated attackers to reach cloud instance metadata services. Attackers can supply arbitrary provider URLs via the x-base-url header or baseUrl parameter to access sensitive cloud credentials and metadata.
