What it detects

This rule detects requests to the SAAS REST instanceHealth endpoint whose hostName or path parameters contain an at-sign injection redirecting the server-side request to an attacker host. This is the post-auth SSRF CVE-2021-22056 used to leak administrative JWT Authorization tokens from internal cluster instances. Detecting it surfaces token theft and internal request forgery against the vulnerable appliance.
