CVE-2026-71196
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was found in OpenStack Glance. The web-download image import method allows authenticated users to provide a URI from which the Glance service fetches data. Due to insufficient default host filtering, an attacker with standard tenant credentials can make Glance issue HTTP requests to arbitrary internal network hosts, including the cloud metadata service. The fetched response is stored as image data and can be downloaded by the attacker, enabling exfiltration of sensitive internal data such as cloud instance credentials.
