Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling or removing the URL Preview plugin if it is not essential. Additionally, restricting outbound HTTP requests from the web server at the network level may help mitigate exploitation risks.
Description
The URL Preview plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0 via the 'url' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services.
