An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-22203 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- whoogle-search (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.8.4\n- whoogle-search (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.8.4\n- whoogle-search (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.8.4\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22203/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22203/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-22203","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-22203/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-22203","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q97g-c29h-x2p7","PYSEC-2024-20"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Whoogle Search","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attacker can force the server to make requests to internal or external resources, potentially accessing private network data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"ssrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"whoogle_search","vendor":"benbusby"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-918","name":"Server-Side Request Forgery"}],"description":"Whoogle Search is a self-hosted metasearch engine. In versions prior to 0.8.4, the `element` method in `app/routes.py` does not validate the user-controlled `src_type` and `element_url` variables and passes them to the `send` method which sends a GET request on lines 339-343 in `request.py`, which leads to a server-side request forgery. This issue allows for crafting GET requests to internal and external resources on behalf of the server. For example, this issue would allow for accessing resources on the internal network that the server has access to, even though these resources may not be accessible on the internet. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.4.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-10-07","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-10-07T15:40:41Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/ferralon-demo/whoogle-search-ssrf-path-traversal","stars":0,"title":"Case study: Whoogle Search CVE-2024-22203/22204/22205 (SSRF, config-name path traversal).
