Astro is a web framework. From version 2.10.10 to before version 5.18.1, this issue concerns Astro's remotePatterns path enforcement for remote URLs used by server-side fetchers such as the image optimization endpoint. The path matching logic for /* wildcards is unanchored, so a pathname that contains the allowed prefix later in the path can still match. As a result, an attacker can fetch paths outside the intended allowlisted prefix on an otherwise allowed host. This issue has been patched in version 5.18.1.

GHSA-g735-7g2w-hh3f — Astro: Remote allowlist bypass via unanchored matchPathname wildcard

Affected: npm: astro

## Summary This issue concerns Astro's `remotePatterns` path enforcement for remote URLs used by server-side fetchers such as the image optimization endpoint. The path matching logic for `/*` wildcards is unanchored, so a pathname that contains the allowed prefix later in the path can still match. As a result, an attacker can fetch paths outside the intended allowlisted prefix on an otherwise allowed host. In our PoC, both the allowed path and a bypass path returned 200 with the same SVG payload, confirming the bypass.

## Impact Attackers can fetch unintended remote resources on an allowlisted host via the image endpoint, expanding SSRF/data exposure beyond the configured path prefix.

## Description Taint flow: request -> `transform.src` -> `isRemoteAllowed()` -> `matchPattern()` -> `matchPathname()`

User-controlled `href` is parsed into `transform.src` and validated via `isRemoteAllowed()`:

```ts const url = new URL(request.url); const transform = await imageService.parseURL(url, imageConfig);

const isRemoteImage = isRemotePath(transform.src);

if (isRemoteImage && isRemoteAllowed(transform.src, imageConfig) === false) { return new Response('Forbidden', { status: 403 }); } ```

`isRemoteAllowed()` checks each `remotePattern` via `matchPattern()`:
