CVE-2026-77581

HIGH CVSS 3.1: 8.6
Updated Sep 24, 2026
Cloudflare
Parameter Value
CVSS 8.6 (HIGH)
Fixed In 2.8.7
Type CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF))
Vendor Cloudflare
Public PoC No

BentoPDF is a client-side PDF toolkit that is self hostable. In 2.8.6 and earlier, the certificate and timestamp CORS proxy in cloudflare/cors-proxy-worker.js uses isPrivateOrReservedHost() to validate a supplied hostname separately from the DNS resolution used by fetch(targetUrl), allowing an attacker-controlled hostname to resolve to an internal or reserved destination after validation. A certificate-like path can satisfy ALLOWED_PATH_PATTERNS, and direct clients can forge the browser-oriented Origin header.

Deployments without PROXY_SECRET skip the optional signature check, while the signature is an anti-abuse measure rather than a destination-security boundary. The proxy has a 10 MB response limit and can relay response bodies from reachable destinations. The advisory identifies both the official Worker deployment and self-hosted instances as impacted where the Worker execution environment can reach internal or reserved destinations.

This vulnerability is fixed in 2.8.7.
