Affected packages
• npm payload: < 3.79.1 → fixed in 3.79.1
Description
Impact
An authenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability existed in the upload functionality.
Authenticated users with `create` or `update` access to an upload-enabled collection could cause the server to make outbound HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs.
Consumers are affected if ALL of these are true:
• Payload version < v3.79.1
• At least one collection with `upload` enabled
• An authenticated user has `create` or `update` access to that collection
Patches
This vulnerability has been patched in v3.79.1. Users should upgrade to v3.79.1 or later.
Workarounds
Until consumers can upgrade:
• Restrict `create` and `update` access to upload-enabled collections to trusted roles only.
• Limit outbound network access from your Payload server where possible.
