exploiting-ssrf

Find and exploit server-side request forgery — reaching cloud instance metadata on AWS IMDSv1/IMDSv2, Azure IMDS, and GCP, internal service discovery, filter and allowlist bypasses via DNS rebinding, redirects, and encoding, and blind SSRF confirmation out of band. Use when an application fetches a URL supplied by the user, when testing webhooks, importers, PDF or screenshot renderers, or when reviewing outbound HTTP calls in source.

# Exploiting SSRF

SSRF matters because of what the server can reach that you cannot: the cloud
metadata endpoint holding role credentials, internal services with no
authentication, and the container network. The vulnerability is trivial; the
work is in the bypasses and in knowing which internal target converts a
curiosity into a compromise.

Only against systems you are authorized to test.

## When to Use

- Any feature that fetches a URL: webhooks, imports, avatar-from-URL, link
  previews, PDF/screenshot generation, XML/SVG processing, file fetch by URI
