Description

Budibase server versions prior to 3.40.0 contain a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that affects OpenAPI query import and REST query execution. Authenticated builder-level users can exploit this flaw to bypass DNS pinning protections via DNS rebinding attacks. This allows attackers to configure hostnames that initially resolve to public IP addresses during validation but later resolve to loopback or private IP addresses during actual connection, enabling access to internal HTTP services that should be blocked.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-72855 is a server-side request forgery vulnerability in Budibase server before version 3.40.0. The vulnerability exists in the handling of OpenAPI query import and REST query execution, where authenticated users with builder-level privileges can bypass DNS pinning protections through DNS rebinding attacks. By manipulating DNS resolution, attackers can cause hostnames to resolve to public addresses during validation and to internal or loopback addresses during connection, thereby gaining unauthorized access to internal HTTP services that are normally inaccessible.

Potential Impact

An authenticated builder-level user can exploit this vulnerability to bypass DNS pinning protections and access internal HTTP services that are intended to be blocked. This could lead to unauthorized internal network access and potential exposure of sensitive internal resources. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.4, indicating a high severity vulnerability with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or temporary workaround is indicated in the provided data. Until a patch is available, restrict builder-level user privileges and monitor for suspicious activity related to OpenAPI query imports and REST query executions.
