Summary
CVE-2026-2286 is a critical-severity SSRF (CWE-918) vulnerability in Crewai Crewai. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 39th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as AI Agent Protocols and Integrations; in the Supply Chain and Deployment risk domain.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-2286 is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability, classified under CWE-918, affecting the CrewAI software. The issue resides in the RAG search tools, which do not properly validate URLs provided at runtime, enabling unauthorized content acquisition from internal and cloud services. Published on 2026-03-30, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), marking it as critical due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, and lack of required privileges or user interaction.
A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability over the network with no user interaction needed. By supplying crafted URLs to the RAG search tools, the attacker can induce CrewAI to fetch content from restricted internal services or cloud resources, potentially compromising sensitive data (high confidentiality impact), modifying systems (high integrity impact), or disrupting availability (high availability impact).
Mitigation guidance is available in the CERT advisory at https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/221883.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Information flow enforcement can restrict which destinations the server is allowed to contact on behalf of users.
Input validation directly stops untrusted URLs from being accepted and fetched without destination checks.
Boundary protection limits the network reach of server-initiated requests even if SSRF occurs.

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.
