Logpoint: Server-Side Request Forgery
CVE-2026-35548 is a high-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in Logpoint from Guardsix, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 7.9.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating Logpoint to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.21% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Logpoint to 7.9.0 or a later version.
- Update Odbc to 5.2.1 or a later version.
- Read the advisory on servicedesk.guardsix.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
Affected products and versions
| Vendor | Product | Affected versions | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Guardsix | Logpoint | before 7.9.0 | 7.9.0 |
| Guardsix | Odbc | before 5.2.1 | 5.2.1 |

Official description
An issue was discovered in guardsix (formerly Logpoint) ODBC Enrichment Plugins before 5.2.1 (5.2.1 is used in guardsix 7.9.0.0). A logic flaw allowed stored database credentials to be reused after modification of the target Host, IP address, or Port. When editing an existing Enrichment Source, previously stored credentials were retained even if the connection endpoint was changed. An authenticated Operator user could redirect the database connection to unintended internal systems, resulting in SSRF and potential misuse of valid stored credentials.

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.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: no, technical impact: partial).
- Record last changed materially (score, affected products, status or references).
