CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:HCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2026-102255 is a critical-severity Confused Deputy (CWE-441) vulnerability in Sonicwall (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 10.0 (Critical).
Operationally, ranked at the 39th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) and SC-7 (Boundary Protection) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Information flow enforcement can restrict which destinations the server is allowed to contact on behalf of users.
Boundary protection limits the network reach of server-initiated requests even if SSRF occurs.
Input validation directly stops untrusted URLs from being accepted and fetched without destination checks.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Runtime monitoring of web applications and services can detect anomalous outbound requests indicative of SSRF.
Vulnerability identification processes can discover and record SSRF flaws in web applications.
Network segmentation and egress controls can limit the damage from successful SSRF requests.
Secure development practices directly include input validation and destination allow-listing that prevent SSRF.

A.5.15 only requires defining and documenting an access control policy plus requirements; it does not itself enforce rules or stop a confused-deputy proxy from being introduced or exploited.
A.5.16 governs identity lifecycle, uniqueness, accountability and timely removal to support proper access rights assignment; it has no bearing on preserving original request sources or stopping confused-deputy proxying when a product forwards an upstream request.
Explicit access-rights assignment can restrict the product’s ability to act as an unintended proxy for external actors.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
- No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-441, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
