CVE-2026-86237 openagents-org CVE debrief
A vulnerability was found in openagents-org openagents up to 0.8.19/0.9.3.post20. Impacted is the function test_default_model of the file sdk/src/openagents/sdk/transports/http.py. Performing a manipulation of the argument base_url results in server-side request forgery. The attack may be initiated remotely. This vulnerability affects openagents-org openagents deployments. Defenders should verify the presence of vulnerable code, assess exposure, and apply compensating controls to mitigate potential server-side request forgery attacks. The CVE record and NVD entry provide details on the vulnerability. Maintainer closed as inapplicable yet the identical unguarded code still ships in 0.9.3.post20.

Who should care
Defenders responsible for openagents-org openagents deployments should assess exposure and prioritize verification and compensating controls. Openagents-org openagents users should verify the presence of vulnerable code in their inventory, assess exposure, and apply compensating controls to mitigate potential server-side request forgery attacks.
Why it matters
Defenders should prioritize verifying the presence of the vulnerable code in their inventory, assessing exposure, and applying compensating controls to mitigate potential server-side request forgery attacks.
- Verify the presence of vulnerable code in inventory
- Assess exposure to server-side request forgery attacks
- Apply compensating controls to mitigate potential exploitation
Technical summary
The vulnerability is located in the test_default_model function of the http.py file in the openagents-sdk. An attacker can manipulate the base_url argument to perform a server-side request forgery attack. The vulnerability was found in openagents-org openagents up to 0.8.19/0.9.3.post20. Impacted is the function test_default_model of the file sdk/src/openagents/sdk/transports/http.py. The attack may be initiated remotely and has been made public. Endpoint and both sinks unchanged since filing; only the file moved (e277dd1a).
Defensive priority
Defenders should prioritize verifying the presence of the vulnerable code in their inventory, assessing exposure, and applying compensating controls.
Recommended defensive actions
- Verify the presence of the vulnerable code in inventory
- Assess exposure and apply compensating controls
- Monitor for potential exploitation attempts
- Review the supplied official advisory or CVE record to validate affected scope, severity, and vendor guidance
- Plan vendor-supported updates or mitigations through normal change control where exposure is confirmed
- 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
Evidence notes
The CVE record and NVD entry provide details on the vulnerability, but the corpus lacks information on actual exploitation, victims, or business impact. Openagents-org openagents deployments should verify the presence of vulnerable code in their inventory, assess exposure, and apply compensating controls to mitigate potential server-side request forgery attacks. Defenders should prioritize verifying the presence of the vulnerable code in their inventory, assessing exposure, and applying compensating controls. The attack may be initiated remotely and has been made public.
