Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the Scalar Proxy endpoint if possible and monitor for unusual outbound requests originating from the backend server. Avoid exposing the vulnerable version in untrusted environments.
Description
scalar/astro version 0.1.13 contains a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the scalar_url query parameter of the Scalar Proxy endpoint. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to make the backend server send HTTP requests to attacker-controlled URLs. Exploitation can lead to exposure of authentication cookies and headers, potentially enabling privilege escalation. The vulnerability has a critical severity with a CVSS score of 9.8. No patch or official remediation guidance is currently available, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported.
