Summary
SvelteKit before 3.0.0 contains a server-side request forgery flaw (CWE-918) in its self-fetch fallbacks. The fallbacks follow HTTP redirects automatically, so an unauthenticated remote attacker can manipulate the Host or forwarded headers to point fallback requests at their own server. That server redirects the requests to internal services.
