🔎 Cybersecurity Challenge #6 – Spot the Vulnerability

This application fetches an image from a URL provided by the user. Sounds harmless, right? 👨‍💻

But allowing servers to request external resources based on user input can sometimes open the door to dangerous attacks.

Take a closer look at how the URL is validated and how the request is made.

⚠️ Is the validation strong enough?

Question: What security vulnerability exists in this code?

A) SQL Injection
B) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)
C) External XML Entity (XXE)
D) URL Redirection

💬 Comment your answer and tell us which line reveals the vulnerability!

In the next post, I’ll reveal the correct answer and explain how attackers could exploit it in real-world environments.
