CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedAzuraCast versions prior to 0.23.8 are vulnerable to a server-side request forgery and local file read vulnerability, allowing users with Media permissions to exploit the AutoDJ functionality. This flaw enables attackers to access sensitive files on the server, such as configuration files or user data, by crafting malicious playlist URLs. Organizations using Docker to deploy AzuraCast should prioritize patching this vulnerability to protect against potential data exposure and unauthorized access.

Original NVD Description
AzuraCast before 0.23.8 contains a server-side request forgery and local file read vulnerability in the AutoDJ remote playlist fetch (backend/src/Radio/AutoDJ/QueueBuilder.php, getMediaFromRemoteUrl()). A user with the station Media permission can create or update a playlist with source=remote_url and remote_type=playlist whose remote_url points at a file:// path or an internal/loopback/link-local HTTP endpoint. When AutoDJ builds the queue, the backend passes the user-supplied URL directly to file_get_contents() with no scheme allowlist and no private/loopback/metadata IP policy (PHP allow_url_fopen is enabled by default, including in the Docker image). Lines from the fetched resource are parsed as M3U/PLS entries, stored in StationQueue.autodj_custom_uri, and returned by GET /api/station/{station_id}/queue to any user with the Broadcasting permission, disclosing host files readable by the web container (for example /etc/passwd or the application .env) and the bodies of non-blind internal HTTP requests. No patched version was available at the time of publication.
