Who should care
Users of AstrBotDevs AstrBot up to version 4.25.2 should be aware of this server-side request forgery vulnerability. They should take necessary precautions to protect their systems, including verifying affected product deployments, reviewing official advisories, and planning vendor-supported updates or mitigations.
Technical summary
The vulnerability is caused by improper validation of user input in the update_plugin and update_all_plugins functions of the astrbot/dashboard/routes/plugin.py file. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by manipulating the download_url, download_urls, or proxy arguments to make unauthorized requests on behalf of the server. This could lead to potential security breaches, including unauthorized data access or system compromise.
