An information disclosure via GET request server-side request forgery vulnerability was discovered with the Workplace Search Github Enterprise Server integration. Using this vulnerability, a malicious Workplace Search admin could use the GHES integration to view hosts that might not be publicly accessible.

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.
