SSRF in Cloudreve

CVE-2026-79913

Cloudreve is a self-hosted file management and sharing system. Prior to 4.18.0, the ValidateExternalURL server-side request forgery guard in pkg/request/ssrf.go passes resolved addresses to checkIP without decoding NAT64, IPv4-compatible, and 6to4 IPv4-in-IPv6 transition forms. An authenticated user with remote-download access can provide SrcUri through RemoteDownloadTask.createDownloadTask so a wrapper embedding a loopback, private, link-local, or cloud metadata IPv4 address is classified as public and fetched, exposing internal service responses and cloud instance credentials. IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses remain blocked because Go converts that form with net.IP.To4. This issue is fixed in version 4.18.0.
