CVE-2026-125114 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 8.3 (high) and affects novu; fixed in 3.15.0.

## Summary

Novu, a service for sending notifications through multiple channels, contains a server-side request forgery flaw in its workflow condition filter webhook. An attacker with low-privilege access can reach it over the network, making the server send a POST request to internal or link-local services and read back the response, which can expose credentials or internal data through the execution details API.

## Affected

- novuhq novu: fixed in 3.15.0

## Description

Novu provides an API for sending notifications through multiple channels. Prior to 3.15.0, the conditions filter webhook in libs/application-generic/src/usecases/conditions-filter/conditions-filter.usecase.ts passes the user-configured child.webhookUrl directly to axios.post without calling validateUrlSsrf. Evaluating a workflow condition can therefore make the worker send a POST request to a private or link-local service and return the response data for condition evaluation. The response is stored in execution details and exposed through GET /execution-details, which can disclose credentials from POST-capable metadata services or data from internal services, although metadata endpoints that require GET are not reachable through this path. This issue is fixed in version 3.15.0.

## FAQ

### Is CVE-2026-125114 being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.

### What does this mean?

The conditions filter webhook can be pointed at private or link-local addresses, which bypasses the validateUrlSsrf() protection. The worker sends POST requests to those services and stores the response body in execution details, which the execution details API returns.
