AI-suggested
Upgrade MaxKB to version 2.8.1 or later, where this TOCTOU SSRF bypass vulnerability is fixed. Since this is an official fix, applying the update fully mitigates the issue. No additional vendor advisories indicate alternative mitigations or that no action is required.
Description
MaxKB versions 2.8.0 and earlier contain a server-side request forgery (SSRF) bypass vulnerability caused by a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in the OSS file service URL fetch functionality. This occurs due to inconsistent DNS resolution between the validation step and the actual request execution, potentially allowing attackers to access internal network services. The issue is addressed in version 2.8.1. The vulnerability has a medium severity with a CVSS 4.0 score of 5.1.
