Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Talend Administration Center has a vulnerability that allows an authenticated user to use the Service Registry 'Add' functionality to perform SSRF HTTP GET requests on URLs in the internal network. The issue is fixed for versions 8.0.x in TPS-5189, versions 7.3.x in TPS-5175, and versions 7.2.x in TPS-5201. Earlier versions of Talend Administration Center may also be impacted; users are encouraged to update to a supported version.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
