Technical details
The vulnerability is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) caused by missing @login_required decorators on two Flask API endpoints: POST /api/test-discord-webhook and POST /api/test-webhook in app/server/fireshare/api/misc.py. The endpoints accept attacker-supplied webhook URLs and make unconditional requests.post() calls without URL validation, scheme restrictions, or allowlisting. An unauthenticated attacker can POST a malicious webhook_url parameter to reach internal services (127.0.0.1, 169.254.169.254 in AWS), Docker-local services, or external attacker-controlled servers. The underlying send_discord_webhook() and send_generic_webhook() functions in cli.py perform no filtering. Versions prior to 1.6.16 are affected; the fix adds the @login_required decorator to both endpoints, preventing unauthenticated access.
