## Key facts

- **Exploitation phase:** Limited Exploitation. The vulnerability is known but shows very limited attacker interest or exploitation activity.
- **CVSS score:** 8.5

## Description

SillyTavern is a locally installed user interface that allows users to interact with text generation large language models, image generation engines, and text-to-speech voice models. Prior to 1.18.0, SillyTavern exposes /api/search/searxng, which accepts attacker-controlled baseUrl and uses it directly to build outbound server-side fetches. An authenticated low-privilege user can point baseUrl at an internal or loopback HTTP service and receive the /search response body. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.18.0.

## CrowdSec analysis

[CVE-2026-46372](https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/vulnerability/CVE-2026-46372) is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in SillyTavern prior to version 1.18.0, where authenticated low-privilege users can manipulate the /api/search/searxng endpoint to make the server fetch data from internal or loopback HTTP services. This flaw could allow attackers to access sensitive internal resources or data not intended to be exposed, potentially aiding in further attacks or reconnaissance within the network.

CrowdSec has been tracking this vulnerability and its exploits since 3rd of June 2026.

CrowdSec has not observed any significant exploitation activity targeting CVE-2026-46372 across its network. As a result, no community-driven trend analysis is available for this vulnerability at this time.

Attackers exploit the `/api/search/searxng` endpoint by supplying a crafted `baseUrl` parameter, enabling server-side requests to internal or external resources and potentially exposing sensitive internal data. This attack pattern targets authenticated users with access to the vulnerable endpoint.
