Server-Side Request Forgery in Nanobot Web Fetch Tool

Publication date: 2026-06-01

Last updated on: 2026-06-01

Assigner: VulnCheck

Description
Nanobot prior to version 0.2.1 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the web_fetch tool that allows remote attackers to reach internal or private network hosts by supplying a URL that redirects to a loopback or private address via a 3xx Location header. Attackers can exploit the automatic HTTP redirect following behavior in the httpx library to bypass initial URL validation and cause the runtime to send outbound requests to internal hosts before final resolved URL validation is applied.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in Nanobot versions prior to 0.2.1 within the web_fetch tool. It is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) issue that allows remote attackers to make the server send requests to internal or private network hosts. This happens because the tool follows HTTP redirects automatically using the httpx library, which can be manipulated via a 3xx Location header to redirect to loopback or private addresses. The initial URL validation is bypassed due to this redirect behavior, causing the runtime to send outbound requests before the final URL validation occurs.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability can allow an attacker to access internal or private network resources that are normally not accessible from outside the network. By exploiting the SSRF, attackers can potentially reach sensitive internal services, which may lead to information disclosure or further attacks within the internal network.
