What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

In Eclipse Che versions 7.29.0 and later, the GET /api/scm/resolve and POST /api/factory/resolver endpoints pass an attacker-controlled URL to URLFetcher.fetch(), which calls new URL(url).openConnection() with no scheme or host allow-list and returns the response body to the caller. Any authenticated Che user can read arbitrary local files via the file:// scheme (including the pod's Kubernetes service-account token at file:///var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token), reach internal HTTP services and cloud instance metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254), and have their stored SCM personal access token attached as an Authorization header to a host of their choosing. The same credential-forwarding behavior also fires when a victim opens a workspace from a malicious devfile whose parent.uri points to an attacker-controlled server, enabling exfiltration of the victim's SCM PAT without direct API access. No fix is available.
