NextChat versions from 2.15.8 through 2.16.1 contain an improper URL validation vulnerability in the proxy endpoint that allows attackers to obtain the server's OpenAI API key. The x-base-url header is validated using substring matching instead of hostname parsing, allowing any URL containing 'api.openai.com' to pass validation and receive the server's credentials in the Authorization header.

A weakness has been identified in ChatGPTNextWeb NextChat up to 2.16.1. This affects the function storeUrl of the file app/api/artifacts/route.ts of the component Artifacts Endpoint. This manipulation of the argument ID causes server-side request forgery. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
