CVE-2025-47936: TYPO3 Vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery via Webhooks

Problem Webhooks are inherently vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), which can be exploited by adversaries to target internal resources (e.g., localhost or other services on the local network). While this is not a vulnerability in TYPO3 itself, it may enable attackers to blindly access systems that would otherwise be inaccessible. An administrator-level backend user account is required to exploit this vulnerability.

Solution Update to TYPO3 versions 12.4.31 LTS, 13.4.12 LTS that fix the problem described.

> [!IMPORTANT] > > Manual actions required > > To mitigate potential SSRF risks via webhooks, it is recommended to explicitly allow access only to trusted hosts. This can be achieved by configuring the allowlist in $GLOBALS['TYPO3CONFVARS']['HTTP']['allowedhosts']['webhooks']. > > If the allowlist is not defined or set to null, all requests will be allowed. > If the allowlist is an empty array, all requests will be blocked. > > By default, the factory setting allows all requests. This prevents existing webhooks from failing after upgrading to the affected TYPO3 versions. Administrators must configure this setting manually to enforce restrictions.
