Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Boundary Protection can enforce allow-lists or deny outbound HTTP requests from the Secure Access server, directly blocking the crafted SSRF test requests in CVE-2025-54087.

prevent

Information Flow Enforcement can restrict the server from initiating HTTP requests to arbitrary destinations, mitigating the SSRF vector that allows admins to publish crafted test requests.

prevent

Information Input Validation can sanitize or reject malformed test HTTP request parameters before they are used to originate outbound connections from the server.
