CVE-2025-6142
📋 TL;DR
This critical vulnerability in Intera InHire allows remote attackers to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) by manipulating the '29chcotoo9' parameter. It affects Intera InHire installations up to version 20250530, potentially enabling attackers to make unauthorized requests from the vulnerable server to internal or external systems. Organizations using affected versions are at risk of data exposure and internal network compromise.

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Attackers could pivot through the vulnerable server to access internal systems, steal sensitive data, or perform further attacks on internal infrastructure.
Likely Case
Attackers will use SSRF to scan internal networks, access metadata services, or interact with internal APIs to gather information or perform limited actions.
If Mitigated
With proper network segmentation and egress filtering, impact is limited to the vulnerable server itself with minimal data exposure.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: None available
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Vendor has not responded to disclosure. Consider workarounds or alternative solutions.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allImplement strict input validation to reject or sanitize the '29chcotoo9' parameter and other user inputs that could trigger SSRF.
Network Egress Filtering
allConfigure firewall rules to restrict outbound connections from the InHire server to only necessary external services.
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate the InHire server in a restricted network segment with minimal access to internal systems
- Implement a web application firewall (WAF) with SSRF protection rules
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if Intera InHire version is 20250530 or earlier. Test by attempting SSRF through the '29chcotoo9' parameter if authorized.Check Version:
Check application version through admin interface or configuration files (specific command unknown).Verify Fix Applied:
No official fix available. Verify workarounds by testing SSRF attempts are blocked.📡 Detection & Monitoring
