CVE-2026-48782
Last modified
CVE-2026-48782 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Pydantic AI is a Python agent framework for building applications and workflows with Generative AI. In versions 1.56.0 through 1.101.0, 2.0.0b1, and 2.0.0b2, the cloud-metadata blocklist could be bypassed by encoding the metadata IP in an IPv6 transition form that the previous fix, CVE-2026-46678, did not decode, exposing cloud IAM short-term credentials. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
Pydantic AI is a Python agent framework for building applications and workflows with Generative AI. In versions 1.56.0 through 1.101.0, 2.0.0b1, and 2.0.0b2, the cloud-metadata blocklist could be bypassed by encoding the metadata IP in an IPv6 transition form that the previous fix, CVE-2026-46678, did not decode, exposing cloud IAM short-term credentials. The previous remediation decoded only IPv4-mapped IPv6, 6to4, and the NAT64 well-known prefix, so the metadata guarantee did not hold for the remaining transition forms: IPv4-compatible IPv6 (::a.b.c.d), the NAT64 RFC 8215 local-use prefix (64:ff9b:1::/48), operator-chosen NAT64 prefixes, and ISATAP. The IPv6 wrapper is then delivered to the underlying IPv4 metadata endpoint. This occurs when an application using Pydantic AI opts a URL into force_download='allow-local' (which disables the default block on private/internal IPs) and runs on a network that actually routes the affected IPv6 transition forms: NAT64-configured networks (IPv6-only or dual-stack-with-NAT64 deployments, including some Kubernetes setups) for the NAT64 variants, or networks with an ISATAP tunnel for ISATAP. A standard dual-stack cloud VM or container does not route these forms and is not affected in practice. The IPv4-compatible and Teredo variants are deprecated and addressed as defense-in-depth. This is an incomplete fix of GHSA-cqp8-fcvh-x7r3 / CVE-2026-46678 (itself a follow-up to CVE-2026-25580). This issue has been fixed in version 2.0.0b3.
