CVE-2025-71398

MEDIUM 5.8

Published 2026-07-18 · Last modified 2026-07-21

SurrealDB before 2.2.2 fails to validate HTTP redirects in http functions, allowing authenticated users to bypass deny-net restrictions by redirecting to blocked IP addresses. Attackers can host a public server that redirects to denied network targets, enabling server-side request forgery to access internal endpoints and retrieve sensitive information.
