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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
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: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 24 Mar 2026
Detectable: evidence found.
nuclei template: LoLLMs WEBUI - Server-Side Request Forgery
Weaponized: evidence found.
Public exploit code: GitHub proofs of concept
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), GitHub proofs of concept, the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 29 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

Given the absence of official patches, organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. First, restrict access to the lollms-webui /api/proxy endpoint by enforcing network-level restrictions such as IP whitelisting or VPN-only access. Deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious SSRF payloads targeting internal IP ranges or cloud metadata endpoints (e.g., 169.254.169.254). Implement strict egress filtering on servers hosting lollms-webui to prevent unauthorized outbound HTTP requests to internal or cloud metadata services. Monitor logs for unusual outbound requests or proxy usage patterns indicative of SSRF exploitation attempts. If feasible, disable or remove the vulnerable /api/proxy endpoint until a patch is available. Engage with ParisNeo for updates on patch releases and apply them promptly once available. Additionally, review cloud IAM roles and metadata service configurations to minimize the impact of potential token exposure, such as using instance profiles with least privilege and metadata service access restrictions.

Description

LoLLMs WEBUI provides the Web user interface for Lord of Large Language and Multi modal Systems. A critical Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability has been identified in all known existing versions of `lollms-webui`. The `@router.post("/api/proxy")` endpoint allows unauthenticated attackers to force the server into making arbitrary GET requests. This can be exploited to access internal services, scan local networks, or exfiltrate sensitive cloud metadata (e.g., AWS/GCP IAM tokens). As of time of publication, no known patched versions are available.

Impact

The impact of CVE-2026-33340 is substantial for organizations using ParisNeo's lollms-webui, especially those deploying it in cloud environments or within sensitive internal networks. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized access to internal services, which may include databases, administrative interfaces, or other critical infrastructure components. Attackers can leverage the SSRF to perform lateral movement within the network, escalate privileges by stealing cloud IAM tokens, and exfiltrate sensitive data. This compromises confidentiality and integrity of organizational data and systems. Additionally, the lack of authentication means any external attacker with network access to the web UI can exploit this vulnerability, increasing the attack surface. The absence of patches further exacerbates the risk, leaving organizations exposed until mitigations are applied. The vulnerability could also be used as a foothold for more complex attacks, including ransomware or espionage campaigns.

CWE-306Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #21OWASP Top 10 A07:2025: Authentication Failures (opens in a new tab)
The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.
Architecture and Design
Divide the software into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Identify which of these areas require a proven user identity, and use a centralized authentication capability.
Architecture and Design
For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks…
Architecture and Design
Where possible, avoid implementing custom, "grow-your-own" authentication routines and consider using authentication capabilities as provided by the surrounding framework, operating system, or environment.

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.
