Description
Verba RAG application version 2.1.3 contains an unauthenticated server-side request forgery vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to cause the backend to issue arbitrary HTTP GET requests by supplying attacker-controlled URLs through the WebSocket import endpoint. Attackers can connect to the /ws/import_files WebSocket endpoint without authentication, specify arbitrary URLs in the HTMLReader configuration, and cause the server to fetch internal resources such as co-located database endpoints or cloud instance metadata services to retrieve sensitive credentials.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for the affected component. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Remediation status
No patched version of the affected component has shipped for CVE-2026-65318 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-65318 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-65318. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-65318 in your dependencies?
O3 detects CVE-2026-65318 across dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
