At a glance
CVE-2022-1239 is a high-severity Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the HubSpot All-In-One Marketing WordPress plugin, affecting versions < 8.8.15. It carries a CVSS score of 8.1 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high confidentiality, integrity impact). The issue is fixed in version 8.8.15; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed April 2022, reported by Brandon James Roldan (tomorrowisnew).
Vulnerability Overview
The HubSpot WordPress plugin before 8.8.15 does not validate the proxy URL given to the proxy REST endpoint, which could allow users with the edit_posts capability (by default contributor and above) to perform SSRF attacks
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on confidentiality, integrity.
CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
Reaching this weakness in HubSpot All-In-One Marketing < 8.8.15 takes a caller who can reach the endpoint. Server-side request forgery means the application fetches a URL supplied by the caller, turning the server into a proxy for requests the attacker could not make directly.
The request originates from inside the hosting network, which is how these flaws reach cloud metadata endpoints, internal admin panels and services that trust local traffic. For HubSpot All-In-One Marketing the fix is 8.8.15: builds < 8.8.15 are affected, anything from 8.8.15 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 8.8.15, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
The attempt arrives as an ordinary request to HubSpot All-In-One Marketing: WordSec's web application firewall inspects request payloads before WordPress loads them. None of that substitutes for the fix: HubSpot All-In-One Marketing 8.8.15 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
