SSRF (Server-Side Request Forgery) in nautobot (CVE-2026-44797)
Summary
SSRF in nautobot (CVE-2026-44797). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via Webhook. Mitigation: upgrade to 2.4.33 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Impact
Nautobot's Webhook data model and associated feature set could be configured by users with sufficient access to perform requests to various hosts and IP addresses that should not be permitted, allowing for various behaviors similar to server-side request forgery (SSRF).
Patches
Fixes are available in Nautobot v2.4.33 and v3.1.2.
In support of this fix, three new settings variables have been added to Nautobot:
WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_SCHEMES- By default new or updatedWebhookrecords will be restricted to HTTP or HTTPS only, disallowing other schemes that may have been previously allowed. Administrators should audit existingWebhookrecords to identify any that are invalid, and either update/delete said records or customizeWEBHOOK_ALLOWED_SCHEMESas appropriate.WEBHOOK_ADDITIONAL_BLOCKED_NETWORKS- This can be used to specify additional IP networks that should be denied toWebhooksending, for example some deployments may wish to disallow RFC1918 addresses or even disallow all networks and carve out specific exemptions using the following setting.WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_HOSTS- This can be used to provide an allow-list of specific hosts that would otherwise be blocked by anyWEBHOOK_ADDITIONAL_BLOCKED_NETWORKSconfiguration.
Workarounds
Administrators should review which users have been granted add or change permissions for the Webhook data model, and should review currently defined Webhook records for safety and validity. Other th…
