Prebid Server Java prior to version 3.43.0 contains a Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability in specific bidder adapters. The issue occur

Overview

Prebid Server Java prior to version 3.43.0 contains a Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerability in specific bidder adapters. The issue occurs when user-supplied bid-request parameters are improperly interpolated into outbound request URLs without validation. This matters because it allows unauthorized network access to internal resources and sensitive endpoints.

Description

Prebid Server Java is the Java version of Prebid Server. Prior to 3.43.0, certain bidder adapters interpolate user-supplied parameters into outbound request URLs without using HttpUtil to validate the resulting domain or path segment. A malicious actor who can supply bid-request parameters can cause the server to send HTTP requests to unintended destinations, potentially reaching internal network services, metadata endpoints, or other sensitive server endpoints with the server's network access. This issue is fixed in version 3.43.0.

Impact

This vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability by allowing unauthorized internal network access via the server. Organizations running vulnerable server instances risk exposure of internal services, cloud metadata endpoints, and sensitive backend infrastructure. System administrators and hosting environments of the Prebid Server Java application are directly affected.

Remediation

Upgrade Prebid Server Java to version 3.43.0 or later where proper domain and path validation using HttpUtil is implemented. Implement strict network egress filtering and outbound firewall rules from the Prebid Server hosts to prevent unauthorized access to internal network segments and metadata endpoints.

Risk context

The vulnerability is rated as critical with a CVSS v3 score of 10.0, indicating maximum severity due to potential full Server-Side Request Forgery capabilities. Organizations should prioritize patching immediately to eliminate the exposure window.
