- Severity: CVSS 8.4 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:H/SI:L/SA:N

## Affected

- grokability snipe-it: fixed in 8.7.0

## Description

Snipe-IT before 8.7.0 fails to properly sanitize markdown image syntax in note fields, allowing authenticated users to read arbitrary server files and issue server-side HTTP requests. Attackers can submit markdown image syntax in checkout acceptance notes that survive HTML escaping, are expanded by CommonMark parser, and resolved by laravel-mail-auto-embed via file_get_contents or curl, exfiltrating sensitive files like .env containing APP_KEY.
