Company Research Agent through 2.2.0 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to trigger outbound requests by injecting unescaped ReportLab paragraph markup into the /generate-pdf endpoint. Attackers can embed inline img elements in report_content to make the server fetch internal or external hosts, leaking image responses in returned PDFs and probing reachability.
