What is CVE-2026-35037?
The Ech0 Publishing Platform is susceptible to an arbitrary URL access vulnerability that allows attackers to exploit the GET /api/website/title endpoint. This endpoint accepts arbitrary URLs via the website_url query parameter and executes a server-side HTTP request without validating the host or IP address, requiring no authentication. As a result, attackers can access internal network services and cloud metadata endpoints (e.g., 169.254.169.254), potentially leading to unauthorized data exfiltration through the HTML tag extraction. This issue has been addressed in version 4.2.8.
Affected Version(s)
Ech0 < 4.2.8
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
