In WordPress before 4.7.5, there is insufficient redirect validation in the HTTP class, leading to SSRF.

Weakness

The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination.
