## What is CVE-2026-45082?

CVE-2026-45082 is a high-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in karakeep-app karakeep, published on 26 May 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

Karakeep is a elf-hostable bookmark-everything app. A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) protection bypass vulnerability was identified in versions prior to 0.32.0 affecting redirect-following processing components. Although the application implements protections intended to prevent requests toward internal/private network destinations, these protections could be bypassed through crafted HTTP redirect chains. By leveraging attacker-controlled redirects, an authenticated user could cause vulnerable application components to initiate requests toward internally reachable Docker network services accessible from the application environment. The issue affected multiple processing paths, including crawler-related functionality and video download processing flows. Version 0.32.0 contains a patch.

Weakness: CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery)

Affected product: karakeep-app karakeep. 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.
