Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: prebid
Product: prebid-server-java

Description

Prebid Server Java is the Java version of Prebid Server. Prior to 3.43.0, certain bidder adapters interpolate user-supplied parameters into outbound request URLs without using HttpUtil to validate the resulting domain or path segment. A malicious actor who can supply bid-request parameters can cause the server to send HTTP requests to unintended destinations, potentially reaching internal network services, metadata endpoints, or other sensitive server endpoints with the server's network access. This issue is fixed in version 3.43.0.

Technical Analysis

Prebid Server Java versions before 3.43.0 contain an SSRF vulnerability (CWE-918) where some bidder adapters incorporate user input into outbound HTTP request URLs without validating the domain or path segments using HttpUtil. This flaw enables an attacker who can control bid-request parameters to induce the server to send HTTP requests to arbitrary destinations, potentially accessing internal network resources or metadata endpoints. The vulnerability is resolved in version 3.43.0.

Potential Impact

An attacker able to supply bid-request parameters can exploit this vulnerability to make the server perform HTTP requests to unintended internal or external destinations. This can lead to unauthorized access to internal network services, metadata endpoints, or other sensitive server resources, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system. The CVSS v3.1 score is 10.0 (critical), reflecting the high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability with no required privileges or user interaction.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade prebid-server-java to version 3.43.0 or later, where this SSRF vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigations are specified. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor advisory stating the issue is fixed in 3.43.0.
