Technical details
The vulnerability is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the error rendering logic of Astro's Node.js adapter. The vulnerable code in base.ts (line 534) fetches a prerendered error page (e.g., /500.html) using the Host header value without proper validation, and follows HTTP redirects. An attacker can set the Host header to point to their own server (e.g., "attacker.tld"), causing Astro to fetch http://attacker.tld/500.html. The attacker's server can then respond with a redirect to any internal URL (e.g., http://localhost:8000/ssrf.txt or cloud metadata endpoints), and the response body is returned to the client. The vulnerability requires direct network access to the application (bypassing any proxy that validates the Host header) and affects only server-side rendered pages with custom prerendered error pages. The patch is available in version 9.5.4 and later of @astrojs/node.
