Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
AgentAPI prior to version [0.4.0](https://github.com/coder/agentapi/releases/tag/v0.4.0) was susceptible to a client-side DNS rebinding attack when hosted over plain HTTP on localhost.
### Impact
An attacker could have gained access to the `/messages` endpoint served by the Agent API. This allowed for the unauthorized exfiltration of sensitive user data, specifically local message history, which could've included secret keys, file system contents, and intellectual property the user was working on locally.
### Remediation
We've [implemented](https://github.com/coder/agentapi/pull/49) an `Origin` and `Host` header validating middleware and set a secure by default configuration.
Please upgrade to version [0.4.0](https://github.com/coder/agentapi/releases/tag/v0.4.0) or later.
