Summary

CVE-2026-30832 is a critical-severity SSRF (CWE-918) vulnerability in Charm Soft Serve. Its CVSS base score is 9.1 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 26th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

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.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2026-30832 is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability, classified under CWE-918, affecting Soft Serve, a self-hostable Git server for the command line. The flaw impacts versions from 0.6.0 up to but not including 0.11.4, where an authenticated SSH user can force the server to issue HTTP requests to internal or private IP addresses. This occurs by executing the repo import command with a crafted --lfs-endpoint URL.

Exploitation requires an authenticated SSH user with repository import privileges. The initial request is a blind batch to a metadata endpoint, which fails to parse as valid LFS JSON. An attacker hosting a fake LFS server can chain this by returning download URLs that redirect to internal targets, enabling full read access to internal services. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:L), reflecting its high severity from network reachability, low complexity, low privileges, scope change, and predominant confidentiality impact.

The vulnerability has been patched in Soft Serve version 0.11.4. Mitigation involves upgrading to this version or later. Official resources include the patching commit at https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/commit/3ef660098ab37a7950457da8ecc25b516e37ce4e, release notes at https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/releases/tag/v0.11.4, and the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/security/advisories/GHSA-3fvx-xrxq-8jvv.

crafted --lfs-endpoint URL. The initial batch request is blind (the response from a metadata endpoint won't parse as valid LFS JSON), but an attacker hosting a fake LFS server can chain this into full read access to internal services by returning download URLs that point at internal targets. This issue has been patched in version 0.11.4.

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.
