CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The vulnerability affects the Bifrost enterprise AI gateway, specifically the isPublicIP function, which incorrectly classifies certain private IP address ranges as public. This flaw allows a remote attacker to exploit multimodal request URLs to access internal services, including sensitive cloud instance metadata. Organizations using versions prior to 1.5.17 should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to internal resources.

Original NVD Description

Bifrost is an enterprise AI gateway for routing requests to model providers. Prior to 1.5.17, the isPublicIP function in core/providers/utils/fetch.go, reached through FetchAndEncodeURL for Bedrock and Vertex image or document URLs, classifies Carrier-Grade NAT 100.64.0.0/10, IPv6 6to4 2002::/16, NAT64 64:ff9b::/96 and 64:ff9b:1::/48, and deprecated IPv6 site-local fec0::/10 addresses as public. A remote attacker who controls a multimodal request URL can make the gateway fetch internal services, including a cloud instance metadata endpoint encoded through 6to4 or NAT64. This issue is fixed in version 1.5.17.
