CVE-2026-55473
MediumCVSS 6.0Summary
HomeBox is a home inventory and organization system. Prior to 0.26.0, the default-on BlockBogonNets and BlockCloudMetadata notifier SSRF protections in backend/internal/sys/validate/notifier_url.go do not inspect IPv4 destinations embedded in the NAT64 prefixes 64:ff9b::/96 and 64:ff9b:1::/48. An authenticated user can submit a generic:// notifier through POST /v1/notifiers or POST /v1/notifiers/test, and on a Homebox instance that egresses through NAT64/DNS64, the gateway can translate an accepted IPv6 destination to cloud metadata, localhost, or another internal IPv4 host. The notifier test path returns delivery result information, and Shoutrrr propagates the response, providing feedback that can disclose retrieved metadata such as temporary credentials. Without NAT64 egress, the crafted IPv6 destination is not routable, but the guard still incorrectly classifies it as safe. This issue is fixed in version 0.26.0.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated user can bypass SSRF protections and reach internal resources and cloud metadata, potentially disclosing temporary credentials. This can lead to privilege escalation and access to other internal services.
Recommendation
Update HomeBox to version 0.26.0 or later. Consider restricting outbound traffic from the instance and blocking access to metadata addresses at the network level.
Other vulnerabilities in HomeBox
See all- CVE-2026-48976High
HomeBox, a home inventory and organization system, prior to 0.26.0 has a vulnerability in NotifierRepository.Update in backend/internal/data/repo/repo_notifier.go. The function updates a notifier through UpdateOneID(id) without requiring the record's user ID to match the authenticated user. An authenticated user who supplies another tenant's notifier UUID to PUT /v1/notifiers/{id} can read the returned stored url, which may contain plaintext Shoutrrr credentials for Slack, SMTP, Telegram, Pushover, or Discord, and can replace the URL to redirect the victim's notifications to an attacker-controlled webhook.
- CVE-2026-48975High
HomeBox, a home inventory and organization system, prior to 0.26.0 has a vulnerability in MaintenanceEntryRepository.Update and MaintenanceEntryRepository.Delete in backend/internal/data/repo/repo_maintenance_entry.go. The functions use UpdateOneID(id) and DeleteOneID(id) without verifying that the maintenance entry belongs to the authenticated user's active group. An authenticated low-privileged user who knows or enumerates another tenant's maintenance-entry UUID can overwrite that record or permanently delete it.
- CVE-2026-48974Medium
HomeBox is a home inventory and organization system. Prior to 0.26.0, POST /v1/groups/members invokes HandleGroupMemberAdd and GroupService.AddMember using a caller-supplied userID without requiring an owner role, an invitation token, target-user consent, or target-user notification. Any authenticated user can force another account into the caller's group, disclose the target user's email address and name through the resulting member list, and create the membership prerequisite used by a separate cross-group inventory-wipe vulnerability. This issue is fixed in version 0.26.0.
- CVE-2026-48826High
HomeBox, a home inventory and organization system, prior to 0.26.0 has a vulnerability in HandleWipeInventory in backend/app/api/handlers/v1/v1_ctrl_actions.go. The function authorizes POST /v1/actions/wipe-inventory through the global ctx.User.IsOwner value instead of the caller's role in the active group, while the active group is selected through the X-Tenant request header. Because every self-registered user who creates a group receives the global owner value, a user who is also a member of another group can select that group with X-Tenant and permanently delete its complete inventory, which is not recoverable without external backups.
