Overview

processwire/processwire is a CMS/CMF.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the Add Module From URL process. An attacker can access internal network resources and sensitive endpoints by supplying arbitrary URLs to the module download parameter, causing the server to make outbound HTTP requests to attacker-controlled hosts. This enables internal network port scanning, host enumeration, and potential access to cloud instance metadata endpoints.
