Technical details
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in Eclipse Theia's '/services/request-service' RPC endpoint. The backend 'BackendRequestFacade' accepts an attacker-controlled URL from any client connected to the standard messaging endpoint, performs the HTTP request server-side, and returns the full base64-encoded response body to the caller. Because the destination URL is not validated or allowlisted, a remote attacker with low privileges can bypass network boundaries to access localhost services, internal APIs, or cloud instance metadata services (IMDS). The vulnerability is present in versions 1.26.0 through 1.72.x and is fixed in version 1.73.0.
