Executive Summary

CVE-2026-28680 is a critical Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the Ghostfolio open source wealth management software. It affects versions prior to 2.245.0 and specifically targets the manual asset import feature.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to perform a full-read SSRF, which allows them to exfiltrate sensitive cloud metadata such as Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) data or to probe internal network services.

This vulnerability requires no privileges or user interaction and has a high impact on confidentiality, with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.3 (Critical). It has been patched in version 2.245.0.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can have serious impacts by allowing attackers to access sensitive cloud metadata and internal network services without authorization.

Exfiltration of cloud metadata like IMDS can lead to exposure of credentials, configuration details, or other sensitive information that could be used to further compromise cloud resources.

Additionally, probing internal network services can reveal information about the internal infrastructure, potentially enabling further attacks.

Since the vulnerability requires no privileges or user interaction, it can be exploited remotely and easily, increasing the risk.
