Next.js: Server-Side Request Forgery in rewrites via attacker-controlled destination hostname

Published July 22, 2026Updated September 10, 2026Source: osv

Summary

## Impact A `rewrites()` or `redirects()` rule that builds its external destination hostname from request-controlled input can be pointed at an arbitrary hostname, regardless of the rule's hostname suffix. For a rewrite, Next.js proxies the request to that arbitrary host and serves the response from the application's origin, leading to Server-Side Request forgery. A `redirects()` rule configured this way is vulnerable to an Open Redirect. This affects any destination that puts a dynamic segment in the hostname, whether from the path: ```javascript // next.config.js module.exports = { async rewrites() { return [ { source: '/:tenant', destination: 'https://:tenant.api.example.com', }, ] }, } ``` or from a `has` capture: ```javascript // next.config.js module.exports = { async rewrites() { return [ { source: '/', has: [{ type: 'query', key: 'region', value: '(?<region>.+)' }], destination: 'https://:region.api.example.com', }, ] }, } ``` ## Workarounds If you cannot upgrade immediately, do not build the hostname of an external `rewrites()` or `redirects()` destination from user-controlled input. If a dynamic subdomain is required, constrain the value to hostname-safe characters: `value: '(?<region>[a-z0-9-]+)'`.
