CVE-2026-77294 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2026-77294: TREK is a collaborative travel planner. Prior to 3.3.0, TREK allows an authenticated user to store an attacker-controlled llm_base_url through the settings API when the LLM_PARSING feature is enabled. Write permission to the target trip instance is required to trigger the vulnerable AI-assisted import path. The value is consumed by the clients in server/src/nest/llm-parse/clients/openai-compatible.client.ts, server/src/nest/llm-parse/clients/anthropic.client.ts, and server/src/nest/llm-parse/router/ollama-format.client.ts without applying the server-side request forgery guard. Triggering AI-assisted trip parsing causes the server to request the supplied destination, and upstream error response text can be returned in parsing warnings. This permits internal service discovery and access to link-local cloud metadata, with possible disclosure of infrastructure credentials and subsequent modification of protected cloud resources. This issue is fixed in version 3.3.0.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2026-77294

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2026-77294 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2026-77294

CVE-2026-77294 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-77294, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2026-77294, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

  • Confidentiality: High
    Exploiting CVE-2026-77294 can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, severely compromising data privacy.
  • Integrity: High
    CVE-2026-77294 could allow unauthorized modifications to data, potentially affecting system reliability and trust.
  • Availability: None
    CVE-2026-77294 does not impact system availability.

CWE Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-918

CAPEC Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification

  • Server Side Request Forgery CAPEC-664 An adversary exploits improper input validation by submitting maliciously crafted input to a target application running on a server, with the goal of forcing the server to make a request either to itself, to web services running in the server’s internal network, or to external third parties. If successful, the adversary’s request will be made with the server’s privilege level, bypassing its authentication controls. This ultimately allows the adversary to access sensitive data, execute commands on the server’s network, and make external requests with the stolen identity of the server. Server Side Request Forgery attacks differ from Cross Site Request Forgery attacks in that they target the server itself, whereas CSRF attacks exploit an insecure user authentication mechanism to perform unauthorized actions on the user's behalf.
