Summary
In Dradis Community Edition, the ProvidersController and AgentsController gate their admin_required before_action on `defined?(Dradis::Pro)`, a constant that is never defined in CE, so the authorization check is never applied. As a result, any authenticated (non-admin) user can create an AI provider pointing to an arbitrary HTTP/HTTPS address (including internal/link-local hosts such as http://169.254.169.254) and reassign the built-in Roslin agent to use it. When an AI interaction is triggered, the server issues a request to the attacker-supplied URL (server-side request forgery). For non-2xx responses, the target's response body is reflected verbatim to the attacker's browser via ActionCable/Turbo Stream error messages, making the SSRF readable.
