Description
text-generation-inference through 3.3.7 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the OpenAI-compatible multimodal chat completions endpoint that allows unauthenticated network attackers to coerce the server into issuing arbitrary HTTP GET requests by supplying a crafted image_url value in chat message content. The fetch_image function in router/src/validation.rs performs no validation of private, loopback, link-local, or cloud metadata target addresses, and the reqwest HTTP client follows redirects by default, enabling attackers to bypass scheme checks via redirect chains to reach internal services and cloud instance-metadata endpoints for internal port scanning and credential theft.
