Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 exposes an SSRF flaw in its /api/v1/query endpoint, letting authenticated users make the server send arbitrary HTTP requests.

Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the expression-processing functionality of the /api/v1/query endpoint. An authenticated remote attacker can supply an arbitrary URL to the exposed fetch() function, causing the server to issue outbound HTTP requests. The application does not sufficiently restrict destination hosts, enabling requests to attacker-controlled or internal targets.

• Authenticated attackers can pass arbitrary URLs to the exposed fetch() function
• Insufficient destination restrictions allow outbound requests to attacker-controlled hosts
• Affected software is Flextype CMS v1.0.0-alpha.3; no CVE cited in the disclosure
