## What is CVE-2026-48762?

CVE-2026-48762 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in baptisteArno typebot.io, published on 11 Aug 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

TypeBot is a chatbot builder tool. Prior to version 3.16.0, the OpenAI "Create Transcription" action handler fetches a user-supplied audio URL using `fetch()` without applying the SSRF protection that exists elsewhere in the codebase. An attacker can direct the server to make HTTP requests to arbitrary internal addresses and localhost. The fetched content is passed to the OpenAI Whisper API and the transcription result is returned to the attacker. Version 3.16.0 fixes the issue.

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