- Severity: CVSS 8.5 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial

- Published: 2026-08-06 · Updated: 2026-08-06

## Affected

- Scripta eScriptorium: through 26.4.1

## Description

Server-side request forgery in the METS and IIIF import URI handling in Scripta eScriptorium through 26.04.1 allows a remote authenticated user to make the server issue arbitrary HTTP requests to internal hosts, including the cloud instance metadata service, via the mets_uri or iiif_uri parameter of POST /api/documents/{pk}/imports/, because the IMPORT_ALLOWED_DOMAINS setting defaults to '*' and no address filtering, redirect cap or timeout is applied
