CVE-2023-7078: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Miniflare

Published Dec 29, 2023
·
Updated

Impact Sending specially crafted HTTP requests to Miniflare's server could result in arbitrary HTTP and WebSocket requests being sent from the server. If Miniflare was configured to listen on external network interfaces (as was the default in wrangler until 3.19.0), an attacker on the local network could access other local servers.

Patches The issue was fixed in miniflare@3.20231030.2.

Workarounds Ensure Miniflare is configured to listen on just local interfaces. This is the default behaviour, but can also be configured with the host: "127.0.0.1" option.
