CVE-2026-9312
Last modified
CVE-2026-9312 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.2/10 on the CVSS scale. A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server that allowed an unauthenticated attacker to send crafted requests to internal services by exploiting insufficient input validation in an upload endpoint. By injecting path traversal content into request parameters, an attacker could bypass the intended request flow and redirect internal API calls, potentially accessing internal services and exposing sensitive credentials. EPSS estimates a 6.60% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
