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

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, 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: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system 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 Vulnerable System 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 Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.

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 24 Oct 2026.

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.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity 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

To mitigate CVE-2026-0932, organizations should take the following specific actions: 1) Upgrade M-Files Server to version 26.3 or later as soon as the patch is available, since the vulnerability affects versions prior to 26.3. 2) If immediate upgrade is not possible, disable legacy connection methods related to document co-authoring features that are vulnerable, if configurable. 3) Implement strict egress filtering on the M-Files Server to restrict outbound HTTP requests only to trusted destinations, preventing the server from reaching arbitrary URLs. 4) Monitor network traffic from M-Files Server for unusual or unexpected outbound HTTP GET requests, especially to internal IP ranges or suspicious external domains. 5) Review and harden internal network segmentation to limit the impact of SSRF by restricting access to sensitive internal services from the M-Files Server. 6) Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) or intrusion detection systems (IDS) that can detect and block SSRF attack patterns targeting the server. 7) Conduct security awareness and incident response planning to quickly identify and respond to potential exploitation attempts. These targeted mitigations go beyond generic advice by focusing on controlling the vulnerable feature, network egress, and monitoring specific to the M-Files Server environment.

Description

Blind server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in legacy connection methods of document co-authoring features in M-Files Server before 26.3 allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause the server to send HTTP GET requests to arbitrary URLs.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2026-0932 is the potential for unauthorized internal network reconnaissance and interaction with internal services that are not directly accessible from the internet. By leveraging the SSRF vulnerability, attackers can cause the M-Files Server to send HTTP GET requests to arbitrary URLs, which may include internal IP addresses, cloud metadata services, or other sensitive endpoints. This can lead to information disclosure, such as internal network topology, service banners, or sensitive data exposure. While the vulnerability does not directly allow code execution or data modification, it can be a stepping stone for further attacks, such as exploiting other internal vulnerabilities or pivoting within the network. The fact that no authentication or user interaction is required increases the risk, as attackers can exploit this remotely without valid credentials. Organizations relying on M-Files Server for document management and collaboration may face confidentiality risks and potential service disruptions if attackers leverage this vulnerability as part of a broader attack chain. The medium severity rating reflects these considerations, balancing ease of exploitation with limited direct impact on integrity and availability.

CWE-918Server-Side Request Forgery (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessCWE Top 25 (2025): #22OWASP Top 10 A01:2025: Broken Access Control (opens in a new tab)
The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.
Implementation · Operation
If there is a known list of applications, IP, hostname, and/or domains to which the product is allowed to communicate, then use allowlists to ensure that outgoing requests are restricted to these known entities. The allowlists could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
Implementation · Operation
If the product is expected to be able to connect to arbitrary IP addresses or domains, consider using a denylist that includes private network addresses, internal domain names, etc. The denylist could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
Implementation · Input Validation
Assume all input is malicious. Use an "accept known good" input validation strategy, i.e., use a list of acceptable inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Reject any input that does not strictly conform to specifications, or transform it into something that does.
