CVE-2026-24231
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 · uneditedNVIDIA NemoClaw contains a vulnerability in the validateEndpointUrl() SSRF protection component, where an attacker could cause a server-side request forgery by supplying a crafted endpoint URL referencing the 0.0.0.0/8 address range through a blueprint configuration file or CLI flag. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to information disclosure.
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.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceNVIDIA NemoClaw contains a flaw in its SSRF protection component validateEndpointUrl() which fails to properly block requests to the 0.0.0.0/8 address range. An attacker with access to supply blueprint configuration files or CLI flags can craft endpoint URLs referencing these addresses to perform server-side request forgery, potentially accessing internal services and disclosing information.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed NemoClaw versionRun the command to display the NemoClaw version (e.g., nemoclaw --version, nemoclaw -v, or check the package manifest). Compare the version number to the affected range: versions prior to 0.0.13 are vulnerable.Affected if The installed version is lower than 0.0.13
-
Locate validateEndpointUrl function usageSearch codebase, logs, or configuration for references to validateEndpointUrl. This function provides SSRF protection and must be present for the vulnerability to be relevant. Inspect any security configuration files or API definitions that reference endpoint validation.Affected if validateEndpointUrl is implemented and actively validating endpoint URLs, but the 0.0.0.0/8 range is not blocked (versions < 0.0.13)
-
Inspect blueprint configuration filesReview any blueprint, configuration, or schema files that define endpoint URLs or external service connections. Look for files such as blueprints.yaml, config.json, or similar. Search for any URL fields that could reference network endpoints.Affected if Blueprint configuration files exist and contain endpoint URL definitions that could be manipulated to point to 0.0.0.0/8 addresses
-
Check CLI flags and environment variablesExamine CLI flags, environment variables, or startup parameters that define endpoint URLs or external connections. Review any command-line arguments passed to NemoClaw that include URL parameters.Affected if CLI flags or environment variables define endpoint URLs that an attacker could manipulate to reference internal addresses
You are affected if NemoClaw version is lower than 0.0.13 and endpoint URL validation (validateEndpointUrl) is in use with configuration files or CLI flags that define endpoint URLs.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped0.0.13
Fix the validateEndpointUrl() function to explicitly block all IPs in the 0.0.0.0/8 range (0.0.0.0 - 0.255.255.255) and ideally other internal/private IP ranges as part of a defense-in-depth SSRF protection strategy.
0.0.13
- 1. Identify the current installed version of Nemoclaw by running: pip show nemoclaw or pip list | grep -i nemoclaw
- 2. Upgrade Nemoclaw to version 0.0.13 or later using pip: pip install --upgrade nemoclaw>=0.0.13
- 3. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the installed version: pip show nemoclaw
- 4. If using a requirements.txt or environment file, update the version constraint to require nemoclaw>=0.0.13
- 5. Rebuild or redeploy any services or containers that use Nemoclaw to ensure they run the patched version
- 6. Test that the validateEndpointUrl() function properly rejects 0.0.0.0/8 address range URLs as expected
