CVE-2026-94028 — mealie-recipes Mealie Recipe Action Trigger controller_group_recipe_actions.py payload.model_dump server-side request forgery

A weakness has been identified in mealie-recipes Mealie up to 3.25.1. Affected is the function payload.model_dump of the file mealie/routes/households/controller_group_recipe_actions.py of the component Recipe Action Trigger. Executing a manipulation of the argument url can lead to server-side request forgery. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. Upgrading to version 3.26.0 is able to address this issue. This patch is called fb221afa258c8dd2c4ac95b1996c33ef9db3f477. The affected component should be upgraded.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.
How the score was calculated
  • EPSS 0.5% (30-day exploitation probability)+6
  • Technical severity (medium)+3
  • 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.

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.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Mealie-recipes Mealie).
  2. No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (ssrf), errors and authentication anomalies.
