Machine-written summary

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

GeoServer's gs-rest (Maven org.geoserver:gs-rest) and gs-web-app (org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app) before 2.26.0 are affected. The Coverage REST API accepts a URL when uploading a coverage store file, and that URL is not checked against the URL Checks feature. An attacker who can access the REST API with permission to upload coverage data can cause the server to make requests to arbitrary URLs (server-side request forgery). Upgrade to 2.26.0 or later.
