When the target remote Presto server to be connected is controllable, an attacker can view sensitive information from highly sensitive internal servers or perform a local port scan.

Vulnerability Discovery Credit: Jianyu Li @ WuHeng Lab of ByteDance

Untrusted input controls the target URL of a server-initiated request, which may reach internal services not otherwise accessible from outside. Typical impact: access to internal metadata services, internal APIs, or cloud credentials.

GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 has a CVSS score of 7.6 (High). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. No fixed version is listed yet, so configuration controls and monitoring matter more in the interim.

1. What is GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4? GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 is a high-severity server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in com.facebook.presto:presto-jdbc (maven), affecting versions <= 0.283. No fixed version is listed yet. Untrusted input controls the target URL of a server-initiated request, which may reach internal services not otherwise accessible from outside.
2. How severe is GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4? GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 has a CVSS score of 7.6 (High). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
3. Which versions of com.facebook.presto:presto-jdbc are affected by GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4? com.facebook.presto:presto-jdbc (maven) versions <= 0.283 is affected.
4. Is there a fix for GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4? No fixed version is listed for GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 yet. Monitor the advisory for updates and apply mitigations in the interim.
5. Is GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

6. What actually determines whether GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
7. How do I fix GHSA-86Q5-QCJC-7PV4? No fixed version is listed yet. In the interim: Validate and restrict destination URLs against an allowlist. Block requests to private IP ranges and cloud metadata endpoints.
