CVE-2026-54166

Summary

Shelf is a platform for tracking physical assets. Prior to version 1.20.3, authenticated users with the asset:import permission can trigger server-side HTTP requests to attacker-controlled URLs through the Asset CSV Content Import feature. The imageUrl validation logic can be bypassed through multiple techniques, including image-extension suffixes, image-related path keywords, domain substring matching, and redirect chains. After validation, the server performs an unrestricted fetch() request to the supplied URL. This results in a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows attackers to reach internal network services, cloud metadata endpoints, and arbitrary external hosts from the application's network context. Additionally, response bodies are fully buffered before size validation, creating a potential memory exhaustion vector. Version 1.20.3 patches the issue.
