Who should care

Defenders managing EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances, security teams, and IT personnel responsible for vulnerability management should prioritize verifying and mitigating this vulnerability. Those managing EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances should verify and assess exposure, implement mitigations, and monitor for potential exploitation attempts. The vulnerability's impact on confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data requires prompt

Why it matters

Defenders should care about CVE-2026-76680 because it allows a remote attacker with low privileges to conduct SSRF attacks, potentially leading to disclosure of sensitive information and enumeration of internal host structure. Those managing EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances should verify and assess exposure, implement mitigations, and monitor for potential exploitation attempts. The vulnerability's impact on confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data requires prompt attention and remediation.

• Potential disclosure of sensitive information beyond authorized privilege levels
• Enumeration of internal structure of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator host
• Possible impact on confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data

Technical summary

The API of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks. A remote attacker with low privileges can enumerate information about the internal structure of the host. This vulnerability allows potential disclosure of sensitive information beyond what is authorized by the user's existing privilege level. The technical impact includes the ability to conduct SSRF attacks, which could lead to unauthorized access to internal systems and data. Defenders should prioritize verifying and mitigating this vulnerability, especially those managing EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances.

Defensive priority

Defenders should prioritize verifying and mitigating this vulnerability, especially those managing EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances.

Recommended defensive actions

• Verify and assess exposure of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances
• Implement mitigations and compensating controls to prevent SSRF attacks
• Monitor for potential exploitation attempts
• Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
• Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
• Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
• Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up

Evidence notes

The CVE record and NVD entry provide details about the vulnerability. Additional information about affected versions, remediation, and potential mitigations is needed. Defenders should verify and assess exposure of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator instances.
