SSRF and LFI in SoftVision webPDF PDF Converter Before

Publication date: 2026-02-19

Last updated on: 2026-03-25

Assigner: MITRE

Description
SoftVision webPDF before 10.0.2 is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). The PDF converter function does not check if internal or external resources are requested in the uploaded files and allows for protocols such as http:// and file:///. This allows an attacker to upload an XML or HTML file in the application, which when rendered to a PDF allows for internal port scanning and Local File Inclusion (LFI).

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow an attacker to perform internal port scanning, which can reveal information about the internal network structure. Additionally, it can lead to Local File Inclusion (LFI), potentially exposing sensitive files on the server. These impacts can compromise the confidentiality and security of the affected system.

Executive Summary

SoftVision webPDF versions before 10.0.2 have a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. This occurs because the PDF converter function does not verify whether the uploaded files request internal or external resources and allows protocols like http:// and file:///. An attacker can upload an XML or HTML file that, when converted to PDF, can perform internal port scanning and Local File Inclusion (LFI).
