High CVSS 8.5
CVE-2026-18597
NVD analysis in progress
The PDF creation feature of Foxit PDF Services API supports referencing external files. Although local file access is restricted, an attacker could trigger an SSRF vulnerability by using URL redirection to bypass validation, leading to information disclosure.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data and alter some data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- The server issues a request to an attacker-chosen address, reaching into the internal network (SSRF).
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
