Machine-written summary

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

Glances versions before 4.5.4 have a server-side request forgery flaw in the IP plugin, where the public_api configuration value is used in outbound HTTP requests without scheme or destination validation. An attacker who can modify the Glances configuration can direct requests to internal or external hosts, and if public_username and public_password are set, those credentials are sent in an Authorization header to the attacker's server. Upgrade to Glances 4.5.4 or later; no workaround is listed.
