Technical details

The builder/api.py module validates only the initial hostname against a private-IP blocklist before following HTTP redirects, creating a TOCTOU race condition. Attackers can supply a public URL that redirects to internal or link-local addresses (including 100.100.100.200 metadata services), bypass DNS rebinding via second-order host resolution, or trigger denial of service through missing timeouts on the requests.get() call. The convert_to_webp endpoint lacks a permission decorator, exposing it to any authenticated user.

Affected products

  • Frappe Builder before 1.36.1

Timeline

  • 2026-10-26: disclosed
  • 2026-10-23: patched: Version 1.36.1 released
