Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Changed: An exploited vulnerability can affect resources beyond the security scope managed by the security authority of the vulnerable component. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are different and managed by different security authorities.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact on the impacted component.
Availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the impacted component are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

CVE published 10 Nov 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

European organizations should immediately upgrade all instances of charmbracelet soft-serve to version 0.11.1 or later, which contains the fix for this SSRF vulnerability. Until upgrading is possible, restrict repository administrator privileges to trusted personnel only and audit existing webhook configurations for suspicious or unexpected URLs targeting internal or cloud metadata endpoints. Implement network segmentation and firewall rules to limit the Git server's ability to reach sensitive internal services and cloud metadata IP ranges (e.g., 169.254.169.254 for AWS). Monitor logs for unusual outbound requests originating from the soft-serve server. Employ intrusion detection systems to detect SSRF patterns. Additionally, enforce multi-factor authentication and strong access controls on repository admin accounts to reduce the risk of privilege misuse. Regularly review and update security policies related to self-hosted development tools. Consider deploying web application firewalls (WAFs) with SSRF detection capabilities as an additional layer of defense.

Description

Soft Serve is a self-hostable Git server for the command line. Versions prior to 0.11.1 have a SSRF vulnerability where webhook URLs are not validated, allowing repository administrators to create webhooks targeting internal services, private networks, and cloud metadata endpoints. Version 0.11.1 fixes the vulnerability.

Impact

For European organizations, the SSRF vulnerability poses significant risks to confidentiality by potentially exposing internal services and cloud metadata endpoints that may contain sensitive credentials or configuration data. This can lead to unauthorized access to internal resources, lateral movement within networks, and compromise of cloud infrastructure. Integrity impact is lower but still present due to possible manipulation of internal services via forged requests. Availability impact is minimal but could occur if internal services are overwhelmed by SSRF requests. Organizations using soft-serve in development, CI/CD pipelines, or internal Git hosting environments are at risk, especially if repository admin accounts are compromised or misused. The vulnerability could facilitate espionage, data breaches, or cloud account takeover, which are critical concerns under European data protection regulations such as GDPR. The lack of required user interaction simplifies exploitation once admin privileges are obtained, increasing the threat level.
