Overview
edx-enterprise is a Your project description goes here
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via the sync_provider_data function. An attacker can cause the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests to internal or external resources by supplying a crafted URL in the SAML metadata source field. This can lead to exposure of sensitive internal information, such as cloud instance metadata or internal APIs, and may allow further attacks such as credential theft or internal network scanning.
Note: This is only exploitable if the attacker has the Enterprise Admin role for an enterprise customer with a configured SAML Identity Provider.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by enforcing network-level egress filtering to block outbound connections from the server to sensitive internal IP ranges.
