CVE-2026-77294 — TREK: Server-Side Request Forgery via User-Configurable LLM Base URL
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.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.3% (30-day exploitation probability)+3
- Technical severity (high)+6
- CISA SSVC: exploitation "poc"+5
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
CISA SSVC assessment CISA
Three decision points CISA publishes for the CVEs it assesses (SSVC 2.0.3). A stakeholder decision, not a severity score.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Mauriceboe Trek).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (ssrf), errors and authentication anomalies.
Affected scope
Vendor, product and versions as the sources word them.

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N (score shown at the top: security-advisories@github.com) Weakness MITRE
Weakness class according to MITRE’s CWE catalog.
Detection
Read off the CVSS vector and the weakness class. Starting points, not tested rules.
- Prioritize edge telemetry for the network-reachable component (proxy, WAF, IDS/IPS).
- Monitor outbound requests from the server to internal IPs and cloud metadata endpoints.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-77294 is "TREK: Server-Side Request Forgery via User-Configurable LLM Base URL", rated High. It affects Trek (Mauriceboe); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 8.1 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.31% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
