Crawl4AI - LLM Credential Exfiltration via base_url and Environment Variable Resolution

Published Jul 12, 2026 · Updated Sep 24, 2026 · Assigned by VulnCheck

Description

Crawl4AI before 0.8.8 contains credential exfiltration vulnerabilities in the Docker API server that allow attackers to redirect LLM API calls to attacker-controlled endpoints and read arbitrary environment variables. Attackers can exploit the unauthenticated /md, /llm, and /llm/job endpoints by supplying a malicious base_url parameter and setting api_token to env:VARIABLE_NAME to exfiltrate provider API keys and server secrets including JWT SECRET_KEY for authentication bypass.
