Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Lemur versions before 1.9.2 are vulnerable to server-side request forgery. When Lemur verifies an uploaded certificate, it sends outbound requests to CRL Distribution Point and OCSP responder URLs taken from the certificate's extensions, with no restriction on destination. An authenticated user with the operator role can upload a crafted certificate to make the Lemur host request internal addresses, such as cloud metadata endpoints or private network hosts. Upgrade to Lemur 1.9.2 or later. The source gives no workaround.
