Technical details
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in Gotenberg's /forms/libreoffice/convert endpoint due to insufficient restrictions on linked resources during document conversion. An attacker can submit a document (e.g., DOCX) containing tags that reference external HTTP(S) URLs or local file paths. LibreOffice, acting as the conversion engine, automatically retrieves these resources, leading to blind SSRF or the embedding of local image files into the resulting PDF. The root cause was the lack of the 'BlockUntrustedRefererLinks' configuration in the LibreOffice profile. This issue is resolved in version 8.34.0 by blocking content linked from untrusted locations.
