CVE-2026-61640: CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in ellite Wallos
Description
Wallos is an open-source, self-hostable personal subscription tracker. Prior to version 4.9.6, Admin-configured OIDC token_url and user_info_url in includes/oidc/handle_oidc_callback.php:18-49 are used directly in curl_init() with zero SSRF filtering. Unlike logo/webhook URLs which have validate_webhook_url_for_ssrf(), OIDC URLs bypass all protections. Admin sets URL to http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ for cloud metadata access or internal network pivoting. This issue has been patched in version 4.9.6.

Technical Analysis
Wallos versions before 4.9.6 contain an SSRF vulnerability (CWE-918) in the handling of OpenID Connect (OIDC) URLs. Specifically, the admin-configured token_url and user_info_url parameters are passed directly to curl_init() without validation or filtering against SSRF attacks. Unlike other URLs in the application that use validate_webhook_url_for_ssrf(), these OIDC URLs bypass all SSRF protections. An attacker with admin privileges can set these URLs to internal network addresses (e.g., http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/) to access sensitive internal cloud metadata or pivot within the internal network. The issue was fixed in Wallos version 4.9.6.
Potential Impact
An attacker with administrative privileges can exploit this vulnerability to perform SSRF attacks by configuring OIDC URLs to access internal network resources or cloud metadata endpoints. This can lead to unauthorized information disclosure and potential internal network pivoting. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.5 (high severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality and integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
This vulnerability has been patched in Wallos version 4.9.6. Users should upgrade to version 4.9.6 or later to remediate the issue. No other mitigation guidance is provided or necessary as the fix addresses the root cause by adding SSRF protections to OIDC URLs.
