Overview

apostrophe is a content management system (CMS) for Node.js. It supports in-context editing, schema-driven content types, flexible widgets and a great deal more. This module contains everything necessary to build a website with ApostropheCMS.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via the pretty-URL handler when the prettyUrls option is enabled. An attacker can cause the server to make blind HTTP requests to internal or external hosts by manipulating the Host header in unauthenticated requests, exposing /uploads/attachments/<cuid>-<slug>.<ext> for a known slug. All further side-channel information disclosure, verbose middleware error reporting, etc. are incidental to this vulnerability.
