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
A weakness has been identified in welovemedia FFmate up to 2.0.15. This affects the function fireWebhook of the file /internal/service/webhook/webhook.go. Executing a manipulation can lead to server-side request forgery. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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 · moderate confidence

Server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in welovemedia FFmate's fireWebhook function in /internal/service/webhook/webhook.go allows remote attackers to manipulate the webhook URL to make the server perform arbitrary requests to internal or external resources.

MitigationImplement strict URL allowlisting and input validation for webhook URLs; restrict outbound network access through firewall rules; consider disabling the webhook feature until a vendor patch is available.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify FFmate installation
    Locate the FFmate binary or service installation directory on the system. Common paths include /usr/local/bin/ffmate, /opt/ffmate, or check system services.
    Affected if FFmate is not installed on the system
  2. Identify FFmate version
    Run 'ffmate --version' or check the binary metadata to determine the installed version number.
    Affected if The installed version falls within an affected range and the webhook feature is in use
  3. Confirm webhook feature is enabled
    Inspect the FFmate configuration file (typically ffmate.yaml, config.yml, or similar) for any webhook-related settings. Look for entries under 'webhook', 'webhooks', or similar sections.
    Affected if Webhook configuration exists and the fireWebhook function is accessible
  4. Inspect webhook URL configuration
    Examine the webhook configuration for any user-controllable or externally-sourced URL parameters. Check if webhook URLs can be set via API, config file, or user input.
    Affected if Webhook URLs are not restricted to a pre-defined allowlist or are derived from user input
  5. Check network egress controls
    Review firewall rules or network policies to determine if the FFmate server has unrestricted outbound network access.
    Affected if The server can make arbitrary HTTP/HTTPS requests to internal or external resources without restriction

A user is affected if FFmate is installed with the webhook feature enabled and the webhook URL can be controlled or is not restricted to an allowlist, allowing SSRF attacks.
