CVE-2026-18597 is a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the PDF creation feature of Foxit PDF Services API. The affected functionality supports referencing external files during PDF generation. Although direct local file access is restricted, the validation protecting this feature can be bypassed through URL redirection, allowing an attacker to induce the server to make unintended outbound requests. The issue affects Foxit PDF Services API versions before 2026-07-27 and can result in unauthorized information disclosure.
