CVE-2026-63088: stoatchat before 0.14.0 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows unauthenticate
CVE-2026-63088 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.6) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
stoatchat before 0.14.0 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows unauthenticated network-accessible attackers to bypass the DNS-based IP blocklist by exploiting incomplete address validation in the url_is_blacklisted function, which inspects only the first resolved address while the underlying HTTP client iterates all cached addresses.
Why this priority
- High severity
- CISA SSVC: public proof of concept
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
