Technical details
The safeurl library (github.com/doyensec/safeurl) is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) bypass because its `privateNetworks` blocklist lacked several recently defined IPv6 CIDR ranges. Specifically, ranges defined in RFC 8215 (NAT64), RFC 9602 (SRv6 SIDs), RFC 9637 (documentation), and RFC 9780 (Dummy IPv6) were not included. An attacker can exploit this by providing a URL pointing to an IP within these ranges, which the library would fail to block. The vulnerability is remediated in version 0.2.4. A temporary workaround is to disable IPv6 support entirely using `EnableIPv6(false)`.
