CVE-2026-9813 | FlowIntel external reference URL probe allows server-side request forgery

FlowIntel up to version 3.3.0 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the external reference URL probe functionality in app/case/task.py. An attacker who can submit an external reference URL can cause the application server to issue an HTTP HEAD request to an attacker-specified destination. Due to insufficient validation of the URL scheme and resolved destination address, affected versions may allow requests to loopback, link-local, private, reserved, or other restricted network resources, potentially enabling interaction with internal services or cloud metadata endpoints from the server's network context.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
