{"id":"PYSEC-2026-588","details":"Crawl4AI is an open-source LLM friendly web crawler & scraper. Prior to 0.8.9, the Docker API server applied its SSRF destination check to the crawl target URL only, not to the proxy address. An unauthenticated request could supply a proxy pointing at an internal IP and route the browser through it, reaching internal services and cloud-metadata endpoints, while using a perfectly valid crawl URL. The Docker API is unauthenticated by default. /crawl, /crawl/stream, and /crawl/job accept a browser_config (and crawler_config). The following all feed Chromium's egress and were unchecked: browser_config.proxy_config.server, browser_config.proxy (deprecated field), crawler_config.proxy_config.server, and --proxy-server / --proxy-pac-url / --proxy-bypass-list / --host-resolver-rules flags in browser_config.extra_args. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.9.","aliases":["CVE-2026-53755","GHSA-6qhc-x826-342c"],"modified":"2026-06-30T23:45:06.039027554Z","published":"2026-06-23T19:17:07.477Z","references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai/security/advisories/GHSA-6qhc-x826-342c"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"crawl4ai","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/crawl4ai"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.9"}]}],"versions":["0.3.0","0.3.1","0.3.2","0.3.3","0.3.4","0.3.5","0.3.6","0.3.7","0.3.71","0.3.72","0.3.73","0.3.731","0.3.74","0.3.741","0.3.742","0.3.743","0.3.744","0.3.745","0.3.746","0.3.8","0.4.0","0.4.1","0.4.21","0.4.22","0.4.23","0.4.24","0.4.241","0.4.242","0.4.243","0.4.244","0.4.245","0.4.246","0.4.247","0.4.248","0.4.248b3","0.4.3b1","0.4.3b2","0.4.3b3","0.5.0","0.5.0.post1","0.5.0.post2","0.5.0.post3","0.5.0.post4","0.5.0.post5","0.5.0.post6","0.5.0.post7","0.5.0.post8","0.6.0","0.6.0rc1","0.6.1","0.6.2","0.6.3","0.7.0","0.7.1","0.7.2","0.7.3","0.7.4","0.7.5","0.7.6","0.7.7","0.7.8","0.8.0","0.8.5","0.8.6","0.8.7","0.8.8"],"ecosystem_specific":{},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/main/vulns/crawl4ai/PYSEC-2026-588.yaml"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"}]}
