Overview

changedetection.io is a Website change detection and monitoring service

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via the is_safe_valid_url function. An attacker can access internal network resources and exfiltrate sensitive data by submitting specially crafted watch URLs that resolve to private, loopback, or link-local addresses.

Note: This is only exploitable if no password is configured for the application, which is the default setting.
