High CVSS 8.1
CVE-2026-18952
NVD analysis in progress
Missing input validation in the threat intelligence feed parser in the OpenSearch Security Analytics plugin might allow an authenticated remote user to perform server-side request forgery and read local files via a crafted URL parameter to the threat intel source configuration endpoint.
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 modify or destroy data.
- 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.
What to doFold into the next patch cycle.
