⚠️ CISA has ordered federal agencies to patch a five-year-old GitLab SSRF vulnerability (CVE-2021-39935) that is currently being exploited in attacks. GitLab issued a fix for the server-side request forgery bug in December 2021 after it was found that unauthenticated users could reach the CI Lint API when user registration was restricted. Under BOD 22-01, affected Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies must remediate by February 24, 2026, and CISA urges all organizations to prioritize mitigation. Shodan currently identifies over 49,000 internet-exposed GitLab instances, many reachable on default ports.

🔒 Chainlit, a widely used open-source framework for building conversational AI, contained two high-severity flaws that enable arbitrary file reads and server-side request forgery without user interaction. Zafran Labs labeled the issues CVE-2026-22218 and CVE-2026-22219, which together can expose API keys, cloud credentials, source code, and internal services. The defects were fixed in v2.9.4; organizations should upgrade to 2.9.4 or later immediately and inspect for potential data exfiltration.

⚠️ Chainlit, a widely used open-source framework for building conversational AI chatbots, contained high-severity vulnerabilities that can expose arbitrary files and permit server-side request forgery, enabling data theft and lateral movement within compromised environments. Zafran Security identified two primary issues: CVE-2026-22218 (arbitrary file read, CVSS 7.1) and CVE-2026-22219 (SSRF with SQLAlchemy, CVSS 8.3). Both were responsibly disclosed on November 23, 2025 and patched in Chainlit 2.9.4 on December 24, 2025. Administrators should upgrade, audit deployments for misuse, and rotate any potentially exposed credentials.

⚠️ Security researchers disclosed two critical vulnerabilities in the Python-based AI app framework Chainlit that allow unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary server files and trigger SSRF requests. The flaws (CVE-2026-22218 and CVE-2026-22219), fixed in Chainlit 2.9.4, stem from an unvalidated custom Element type exposing path and URL properties. Exploits can leak environment variables, API keys, LLM prompts, and cloud credentials, enabling lateral movement and broader compromise.

🔒 Chainlit, a widely used framework for building conversational AI applications, contained two server-side vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-22218 and CVE-2026-22219) that allow authenticated users to read arbitrary files and trigger SSRF in affected deployments. The flaws stem from insufficient validation of user-controlled properties in custom elements and SQLAlchemy-backed storage. Combined, they can expose environment variables, cached prompts, API keys and cloud metadata, enabling lateral movement beyond the app layer. Chainlit released 2.9.4 on 24 December 2025 and users are advised to apply the patch immediately; temporary WAF signatures were published as mitigation.
