{"id":"CVE-2025-34469","aliases":["GHSA-83jg-m2pm-4jxj","PYSEC-2026-1280"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2025-34469","summary":"Cowrie < 2.9.0 Unrestricted wget/curl Emulation Enables SSRF-Based DDoS Amplification","details":"Cowrie versions prior to 2.9.0 contain a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the emulated shell implementation of wget and curl. In the default emulated shell configuration, these command emulations perform real outbound HTTP requests to attacker-supplied destinations. Because no outbound request rate limiting was enforced, unauthenticated remote attackers could repeatedly invoke these commands to generate unbounded HTTP traffic toward arbitrary third-party targets, allowing the Cowrie honeypot to be abused as a denial-of-service amplification node and masking the attacker’s true source address behind the honeypot’s IP.","published":"2025-12-31T21:36:19.022Z","modified":"2026-07-15T01:49:02.244300586Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"cowrie","fixedVersion":"2.9.0"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie/pull/2800","label":"cowrie/cowrie#2800"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/34xxx/CVE-2025-34469.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-83jg-m2pm-4jxj"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-34469"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/cowrie-unrestricted-wget-curl-emulation-enables-ssrf-based-ddos-amplification"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie/issues/2622"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie/pull/2800"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie/releases/tag/v2.9.0"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-07-15T01:49:02.244300586Z"}}
