Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Enforces information flow policies that directly block the unauthorized outbound requests enabled by this SSRF vulnerability.

prevent

Implements boundary controls to restrict the system from initiating the unauthorized network requests described in the CVE.

prevent

Requires validation of user-supplied URLs or inputs that an authenticated attacker would use to trigger SSRF.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure development practices directly include input validation and destination allow-listing that prevent SSRF.

DE.CM-09 partial match
prevents

Runtime monitoring of web applications and services can detect anomalous outbound requests indicative of SSRF.

ID.RA-01 partial match
prevents

Vulnerability identification processes can discover and record SSRF flaws in web applications.

PR.IR-01 partial match
prevents

Network segmentation and egress controls can limit the damage from successful SSRF requests.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

prevents

Operational threat data describing SSRF campaigns can be used to tighten outbound-request allow-lists and detection rules before attackers exploit them.
