How to detect it

Nuclei template (active check)

changedetection.io - Server-Side Request Forgery

changedetection.io (up to 50389b07, fixed in 0.60.1) lets the add-watch-ui snapshot/preview endpoint fetch an arbitrary user-supplied url. On instances without a configured password this is reachable unauthenticated, letting a remote attacker make the server request internal resources (SSRF).

Name and description quoted from the template, written by VEDAS.

The template sends 1 request (POST /add-watch-ui/snapshot); it confirms through an out-of-band callback (interactsh), so the scanner must be able to receive it; it decides using word matchers. Severity in the template: high. Marked as not yet verified against a live vulnerable target.

Run it against a host you own or are authorised to test:
