Alfresco · Alfresco Community Edition · CVE-2014-9301
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Alfresco Community Edition versions prior to 5.0.a
**Description**
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) issue exists, allowing remote attackers to trigger outbound requests to intranet servers, conduct port scans, and read arbitrary files via a crafted URI in the `endpoint` parameter.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 5.0.a, update to version 5.0.a or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the proxy servlet to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the `endpoint` parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
