Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-55229)

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause Gotenberg to issue server-side HTTP(S) requests to attacker-controlled destinations.

The vulnerability exists due to automatic external resource retrieval by LibreOffice when processing crafted DOCX documents under Gotenberg's default configuration. An unauthenticated remote attacker can upload a document containing an external image reference to /forms/libreoffice/convert and trigger an outbound request during conversion.
