Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to consume server resources beyond Gotenberg's configured request body limit.
The vulnerability exists due to enforcement of api-body-limit only after complete multipart parsing when a positive limit is configured. An unauthenticated remote attacker can submit an oversized body to a reachable multipart conversion route within api-timeout, causing the entire request to be read and parsed before rejection.
2) Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-668 - Exposure of resource to wrong sphere
CVSSv4: 5.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote API client to access another user's session-protected content through Gotenberg conversions.
The vulnerability exists due to a shared Chromium cookie jar across conversions in deployments serving mutually untrusted users with default cookie retention. A remote API client can request conversion of a known origin after a victim supplies a valid cookie, obtaining authenticated content before that cookie expires or Chromium restarts.
3) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: N/A)
CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to bypass outbound restrictions and read internal WebSocket service data through server-side request forgery.
The vulnerability exists due to missing WebSocket policy enforcement in Gotenberg's Chromium component when URL allow/deny lists are configured while --chromium-deny-private-ips and --chromium-deny-public-ips remain false. An unauthenticated remote attacker can submit a conversion URL serving controlled JavaScript from an allowed origin to connect to blocked loopback or link-local services and include returned data in the generated PDF.
