An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-6538 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/openshift/console (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/openshift/console (Go): affected all versions up to 6.0.6; no fix listed\n- github.com/openshift/console (Go): affected all versions up to 6.0.6; no fix listed\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-2024-6538/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6538/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-6538","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6538/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-6538","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v3w7-g6p2-mpx7","GO-2024-3289"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenShift Console","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Authenticated users can exploit an SSRF vulnerability in OpenShift Console to perform arbitrary HTTP requests from the server, potentially accessing internal services and disclosing sensitive information.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"ssrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-918","name":"Server-Side Request Forgery"}],"description":"A flaw was found in OpenShift Console. A Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attack can happen if an attacker supplies all or part of a URL to the server to query. The server is considered to be in a privileged network position and can often reach exposed services that aren't readily available to clients due to network filtering. Leveraging such an attack vector, the attacker can have an impact on other services and potentially disclose information or have other nefarious effects on the system.\nThe /api/dev-console/proxy/internet endpoint on the OpenShift Console allows authenticated users to have the console's pod perform arbitrary and fully controlled HTTP(s) requests. The full response to these requests is returned by the endpoint.\nWhile the name of this endpoint suggests the requests are only bound to the internet, no such checks are in place. An authenticated user can therefore ask the console to perform arbitrary HTTP requests from outside the cluster to a service inside the cluster.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Openshift-console: openshift console: server-side request forgery","id":"CVE-2024-6538","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"ssrf","year":"2024"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"heyewei SpringBootCMS Guestbook guestbook cross site scripting","id":"CVE-2024-6539"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/openshift/console","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/openshift/console","source":"GO-2024-3289"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["6.0.6"],"package":"github.com/openshift/console","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-v3w7-g6p2-mpx7"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["6.0.6"],"package":"github.com/openshift/console","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/openshift/console","source":"GHSA-v3w7-g6p2-mpx7"}],"prev":{"headline":"Zephyr Project Manager \u003c 3.3.99 - Editor+ XSS","id":"CVE-2024-6536"},"products":["Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.14","Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.15","Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.16","Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.17","Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.18"],"published":"2024-11-25","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-11-07","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can exploit an SSRF vulnerability in OpenShift Console to perform arbitrary HTTP requests from the server, potentially accessing internal services and disclosing sensitive information.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6538/"}
