Overview

graphite-web is a real-time graphing system.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) in send_email in graphite-web/webapp/graphite/composer/views.py. The endpoint can be used by an attacker to have the web server request any resource. The response to this SSRF request is encoded into an image file and then sent to an e-mail address that can be supplied by the attacker. Thus, an attacker can exfiltrate any information.
