CVE-2026-27797

5.3 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

Homarr dashboard versions before 1.54.0 contain an unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability that allows attackers to force the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests. This can be used to access internal network resources from the Homarr host's network context. All Homarr instances running vulnerable versions are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Homarr
Versions: All versions prior to 1.54.0
Operating Systems: All platforms running Homarr
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All Homarr deployments with default configurations are vulnerable.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

Recommended Actions:
  1. Review the CVE details at NVD
  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Attackers could access sensitive internal services, exfiltrate data, or pivot to other systems within the Homarr host's network.

🟠

Likely Case

Internal network reconnaissance, accessing internal APIs or services, and potential data exposure from internal systems.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if network segmentation restricts Homarr's outbound access and internal services require authentication.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Unauthenticated exploitation allows remote attackers to leverage this vulnerability.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers could still exploit this to pivot within the network.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

SSRF vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity, especially when unauthenticated.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: 1.54.0

Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/homarr-labs/homarr/security/advisories/GHSA-vwqf-2f4m-2cq2

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Stop Homarr service. 2. Update to version 1.54.0 using your deployment method (Docker, manual, etc.). 3. Restart Homarr service.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Restriction

all

Restrict Homarr's outbound network access to only required destinations

Use firewall rules to block Homarr from accessing internal networks

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate Homarr from sensitive internal networks
  • Deploy a web application firewall (WAF) with SSRF protection rules

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check Homarr version in dashboard settings or via API

Check Version:

Check Homarr web interface settings or container image tag

Verify Fix Applied:

Confirm version is 1.54.0 or later in dashboard settings

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound HTTP requests from Homarr server
  • Requests to internal IP addresses or unusual domains

Network Indicators:

  • Homarr server making unexpected HTTP requests to internal networks

SIEM Query:

source="homarr" AND (dest_ip=10.0.0.0/8 OR dest_ip=172.16.0.0/12 OR dest_ip=192.168.0.0/16)
