Prior to version 0.19.18, Lemmy allows an authenticated low-privileged user to create a link post through POST /api/v3/post. When a post is created in a public community, the backend asynchronously sends a Webmention to the attacker-controlled link target. The submitted URL is checked for syntax and scheme, but the audited code path does not reject loopback, private, or link-local destinations before the Webmention request is issued. This lets a normal user trigger server-side HTTP requests toward internal services. This issue has been patched in version 0.19.18."},{"lang":"es","value":"Lemmy es un agregador de enlaces y un foro para el fediverso. Antes de la versión 0.19.18, Lemmy permite a un usuario autenticado con privilegios bajos crear una publicación de enlace a través de POST /API/v3/post. Cuando se crea una publicación en una comunidad pública, el backend envía asincrónicamente una Webmention al objetivo de enlace controlado por el atacante. La URL enviada se verifica en cuanto a sintaxis y esquema, pero la ruta de código auditada no rechaza destinos de loopback, privados o de enlace local antes de que se emita la solicitud de Webmention. Esto permite a un usuario normal activar solicitudes HTTP del lado del servidor hacia servicios internos.
