What is CVE-2026-44015?

The Nginx UI web interface, up to version 2.3.4, is susceptible to a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attack. An authenticated user can exploit this vulnerability by creating a cluster node that directs to any internal URL. By sending API requests with the X-Node-ID header, the Proxy middleware forwards these requests to the specified internal addresses. This process allows attackers to bypass network segmentation protocols and gain access to sensitive services limited to localhost or internal networks.
