CVE-2026-56734: Zammad: Avatar Image URL Server-Side Request Forwarding
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.39% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: zammad zammad 7.0.2.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to zammad zammad 7.0.2 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Zammad is a web based open source helpdesk/customer support system. Prior to 7.0.2, during federated authentication (OAuth/OIDC/SAML), a profile image URL from the external identity provider is fetched without verifying the target address. An actor who controls their profile at a connected provider may cause the server to connect to internal network locations. Response timing and error patterns differ between reachable and unreachable targets, allowing internal service probing. Worker processes may be blocked for several seconds per request. Requires a configured external authentication provider where the actor can modify their profile image URL. This issue is fixed in version 7.0.2.
