CVE-2026-42281: MagicMirror <= 2.35.0 - Server-Side Request Forgery

id: CVE-2026-42281

info:
  name: MagicMirror <= 2.35.0 - Server-Side Request Forgery
  author: aleff-github
  severity: critical
  description: |
    An unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the /cors endpoint allows any remote attacker to force the MagicMirror² server to perform arbitrary HTTP requests to internal networks, cloud metadata services, and localhost services. The endpoint also expands environment variable placeholders (VAR_NAME), enabling exfiltration of server-side secrets.
  impact: |
    A remote unauthenticated attacker can force the MagicMirror server to request localhost, internal network, and cloud metadata endpoints. In affected configurations, the endpoint can return server-side responses to the attacker.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade MagicMirror to version 2.36.0 or later.
