Oidc Op: Server-Side Request Forgery
CVE-2022-24129 is a high-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in Oidc Op from Shibboleth, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 3.0.4 as the first without the flaw, so updating Oidc Op to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 6.14% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is in the top 6.43% of all scored CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Oidc Op to 3.0.4 or a later version.
- Read the advisory on shibboleth.net for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
The OIDC OP plugin before 3.0.4 for Shibboleth Identity Provider allows server-side request forgery (SSRF) due to insufficient restriction of the request_uri parameter. This allows attackers to interact with arbitrary third-party HTTP services.

The underlying weakness: Server-Side Request Forgery
The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- If there is a known list of applications, IP, hostname, and/or domains to which the product is allowed to communicate, then use allowlists to ensure that outgoing requests are restricted to these known entities. The allowlists could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
- If the product is expected to be able to connect to arbitrary IP addresses or domains, consider using a denylist that includes private network addresses, internal domain names, etc. The denylist could be in the application code or possibly enforced by firewalls or network segmentation.
