Description
Jellyfin through 12.4 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability that lets authenticated users bypass SvgSecurityValidator by embedding gzip-compressed SVG in non-SVG image data URIs. Attackers can upload such profile images via POST /UserImage, then trigger unauthenticated rendering via GET /UserImage to fetch internal URLs, read local image files, or exhaust memory.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Remediation status
No fixed release is recorded for CVE-2026-119549 yet. Track the upstream advisory, and apply the exposure-reduction steps below in the meantime.
Mitigate without a patch
Restrict outbound requests from the affected component to an allowlist of hosts, block access to link-local and internal address ranges at the network layer, and require authentication on internal services so a forged request cannot reach them unauthenticated.
