## What is CVE-2026-39362?

CVE-2026-39362 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in InvenTree, published on 8 Apr 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

InvenTree is an Open Source Inventory Management System. Prior to 1.2.7 and 1.3.0, when INVENTREE_DOWNLOAD_FROM_URL is enabled (opt-in), authenticated users can supply remote_image URLs that are fetched server-side via requests.get() with only Django's URLValidator check. There is no validation against private IP ranges or internal hostnames. Redirects are followed (allow_redirects=True), enabling bypass of any URL-format checks. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.2.7 and 1.3.0.

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-39362 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-39362 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in InvenTree, published on 8 Apr 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-39362 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: InvenTree. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
