description
Plex Media Server versions earlier than 1.43.3.10861 are affected by a server-side request forgery flaw in the player timeline functionality. An attacker who can reach the service and provide an X-Plex-Token value can cause the server to send a POST request to an attacker-selected destination.
mitigation
Upgrade Plex Media Server to version 1.43.3.10861 or later. Until upgraded, restrict untrusted network access to the server.
fixed in 1.43.3.10861
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
