Elestio Memos is a collaborative knowledge management platform designed for teams to create and share documents. It is a web-based application that facilitates easy note-taking, content sharing, and collaboration within an organization. The application provides features such as document editing, search functionality, and content management. Elestio Memos is often used in team environments to centralize knowledge and improve workflow efficiency. The software integrates various tools to assist teams in managing information and collaborating effectively. It is commonly deployed in enterprise and organizational settings to streamline information sharing.
The vulnerability allows attackers to exploit the server-side request functionality of Elestio Memos, leading to a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). SSRF occurs when the application does not adequately validate user-supplied URLs. This allows an attacker to send crafted requests to internal services, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information or systems within the internal network. This vulnerability is critical due to its ability to compromise the security of the underlying infrastructure and expose sensitive systems to unauthorized access.
The vulnerability occurs due to insufficient validation of URLs provided by the user. An attacker can craft a request to the /api/v1/markdown/link:metadata endpoint, providing a link to an internal service, such as http://localhost:13042. When the system processes this request, it can inadvertently attempt to connect to the internal service, leading to a SSRF attack. The lack of proper URL validation exposes internal services to external threats, potentially allowing attackers to interact with sensitive systems that are normally isolated. The vulnerability is triggered when the application does not block or sanitize the user-provided URLs, allowing the crafted request to reach internal endpoints.
If exploited, SSRF can lead to unauthorized access to internal systems, which could be used to gather sensitive data or interact with internal services. This could result in the exposure of sensitive configuration files, authentication tokens, or internal service data. The attack could also lead to service disruptions or further attacks on internal infrastructure. The critical severity of this vulnerability makes it a high-risk issue that should be addressed immediately. While the application may attempt to block access to internal services, the failure to properly sanitize the URLs increases the risk of exploitation.
