Overview

renovate is a dependency updater.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via outbound HTTP requests in lib/util/http/host-guard.ts (and the broader HTTP layer), where an attacker-controlled configuration value such as a customDatasources URL or a preset extends URL can direct Renovate to issue requests to internal network addresses, including loopback, private-range, link-local, and cloud metadata endpoints. Because no enforcement was applied before cache lookups or redirects, an attacker can reach internal hosts and exfiltrate sensitive data, including cloud instance metadata credentials. DNS rebinding is also possible because hostname-to-address resolution was not validated on each new connection.
