**Vulnerability:** The `/process-url` endpoint used `httpx.AsyncClient(follow_redirects=True)` after validating the initial user-provided URL against SSRF protections. However, it did not validate the target URLs of any subsequent HTTP redirects, allowing an attacker to provide a safe URL that redirects to an internal/private IP, bypassing the security check.
|
||||
**Learning:** Initial URL validation is insufficient when the HTTP client is configured to follow redirects automatically. The client must be explicitly configured to validate every redirect target.
|
||||
**Prevention:** When using `httpx.AsyncClient(follow_redirects=True)` for user-provided URLs, always implement a redirect validator hook function (e.g., using `event_hooks={'response': [validate_redirect]}`) that resolves the `Location` header and passes it through the same SSRF validation logic before the redirect is followed.

## 2024-05-28 - [SSRF Bypass via Duplicate Keyword Arguments]
|
||||
**Vulnerability:** The `httpx.AsyncClient` initialization in `app/api/url_upload.py` contained duplicate `event_hooks` keyword arguments. Because Python dictionary literals allow duplicate keys but only keep the last one, the `event_hooks={"response": [validate_redirect]}` definition was silently overwritten by the later `event_hooks={"response": [verify_redirect]}` definition. This removed the `validate_redirect` security hook.
|
||||
**Learning:** Duplicate keyword arguments when instantiating Python objects (like `httpx.AsyncClient`) are caught by the interpreter as `SyntaxError: keyword argument repeated`. However, if duplicate keys are used inside a dictionary literal (e.g. `event_hooks={"response": [hook1], "response": [hook2]}`), Python silently overwrites earlier keys. When dealing with configuration options that take a dictionary of lists (like `event_hooks`), multiple related configuration options must be combined into a single list rather than passed via duplicate kwargs or dictionary keys.
|
||||
**Prevention:** When providing multiple event hooks to `httpx.AsyncClient` (e.g., combining global and local SSRF redirect validators), combine them into a single list for the event key (e.g., `event_hooks={'response': [hook1, hook2]}`) to prevent silent overwriting. Linters should be configured to catch duplicate dictionary keys or keyword arguments.
