CVE-2026-54885 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.9) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability in malach-it Boruta allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause the OAuth/OpenID authorization server to issue outbound HTTP requests to attacker-chosen URIs, including internal services and cloud metadata endpoints. Three code paths fetch remote URIs supplied by the requester without sufficient validation of the target. Boruta.Oauth.Request.Base.fetch_unsigned_request/1 in lib/boruta/oauth/reques
Why this priority
- CISA SSVC: public proof of concept
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
