Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Vault’s PKI engine. The ACME (Automated Certificate Management Environment) validation process did not properly restrict requests to local network targets when handling http-01 and tls-alpn-01 challenges. This vulnerability, known as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), could allow a remote attacker to send crafted ACME validation challenges, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive information from internal network resources.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-04-17 04:01:44 UTC
Vault’s PKI engine’s ACME validation did not reject local targets when issuing http-01 and tls-alpn-01 challenges. This may lead to these requests being sent to local network targets, potentially leading to information disclosure. Fixed in Vault Community Edition 2.0.0 and Vault Enterprise 2.0.0, 1.21.5, 1.20.10, and 1.19.16.
