CVE-2026-54637

## Summary The Dragonfly **scheduler**'s v1 gRPC service contains an unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). When a peer reports a successful download of a TINY task, the scheduler calls `Peer.DownloadTinyFile()` and issues an HTTP `GET` to a host and port taken verbatim from the attacker-controlled `PeerHost.Ip` / `PeerHost.DownPort` fields of the gRPC request body. The HTTP client uses a bare `http.Transport` with no address validation, so a remote, unauthenticated client can force the scheduler to connect to arbitrary internal addresses, including `127.0.0.1` (loopback), `169.254.0.0/16` (link-local, e.g. cloud metadata), and RFC1918 ranges. The fetched response is stored in `Task.DirectPiece` and can subsequently be served to other peers, making this a read-SSRF with a data-exfiltration path. The manager's preheat code path already wraps its HTTP client with `nethttp.NewSafeDialer()` (which rejects non-global-unicast destinations); the scheduler's `DownloadTinyFile` path is missing this guard (sibling gap). ## Severity Medium. The attack requires no authentication (the scheduler gRPC server runs with insecure transport credentials by default and has no auth interceptor), and the destination is fully attacker-controlled. Impact is limited to read-SSRF: blind reachability probing of internal hosts/ports plus exfiltration of up to `TinyFileSize` (128) bytes per task from internal HTTP services into `Task.DirectPiece`. It is not remote code execution, and `PeerHost.DownPort` is constrained by proto validation to `>= 1024`, which excludes destination port 80. ## Affected component - Repository: `dragonflyoss/dragonfly` - Go module: `d7y.io/dragonfly/v2` - Component: scheduler, v1 gRPC protocol - Affected file: `scheduler/resource/standard/peer.go` (`DownloadTinyFile`), reached via `scheduler/service/service_v1.go` (`storeHost`, `RegisterPeerTask`, `ReportPeerResult`, `handlePeerSuccess`) - Verified against: latest release `v2.4.4-rc.2` (commit `0822
