Description

CVE-2026-40242 is a high-severity unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Arcane versions prior to 1. 17. 3. The vulnerability exists in the /api/templates/fetch endpoint, which accepts a user-supplied URL parameter and performs an HTTP GET request without authentication or validation of the URL scheme or host. The server's response is returned directly to the caller, potentially allowing attackers to induce the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests. This issue is fixed in Arcane version 1. 17. 3.

Technical Analysis

Arcane, a Docker management interface, has an SSRF vulnerability (CWE-918) in versions before 1.17.3. The /api/templates/fetch endpoint accepts a URL parameter and performs an unauthenticated server-side HTTP GET request without validating the URL scheme or host. This allows an attacker to cause the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests and return the response to the attacker. The vulnerability affects any publicly reachable Arcane instance and is resolved in version 1.17.3.

Potential Impact

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to make the Arcane server perform arbitrary HTTP GET requests to internal or external resources. This can lead to information disclosure (confidentiality impact) and integrity impact due to the server acting on attacker-controlled URLs. There is no direct availability impact reported. The vulnerability is unauthenticated and remotely exploitable, increasing its risk.

Mitigation Recommendations

This vulnerability is fixed in Arcane version 1.17.3. Users should upgrade to version 1.17.3 or later to remediate this issue. Since no official patch links or vendor advisory details are provided, confirm patch availability from the vendor or official sources before upgrading.
