SSRF (Server-Side Request Forgery) in @aborruso/ckan-mcp-server (CVE-2026-61612)
Summary
SSRF in @aborruso/ckan-mcp-server (CVE-2026-61612). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via POST /mcp. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.4.108 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
The SSRF guard validateServerUrl (added for CVE-2026-33060, extended for CVE-2026-53509) validates only the hostname string and never resolves DNS. Any caller-supplied server_url whose hostname resolves to an internal address passes the guard, so the server issues requests to loopback and cloud metadata (169.254.169.254). This is a third bypass of the same guard, still present in the current latest 0.4.107, and it reaches IMDS — strictly more than CVE-2026-53509, which only reached loopback.
Affected / patched
@aborruso/ckan-mcp-server(npm) — all versions with the guard, through 0.4.107 (currentlatest). The guard has never resolved DNS. No patch yet.
Severity
It is effectively High for the self-hosted unauthenticated HTTP transport (TRANSPORT=http, POST /mcp), where any remote client reaches IMDS/internal hosts directly. The official Cloudflare Worker endpoint is CF-sandboxed (cannot reach loopback/RFC-1918/IMDS).
Root cause — src/utils/http.ts, validateServerUrl
The guard blocks IP literals and three loopback alias strings, but does no name resolution:
const hostname = parsed.hostname.toLowerCase();
if (new Set(['localhost','ip6-localhost','ip6-loopback']).has(hostname)) throw; // string denylist
if (hostname.match(/^(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)$/)) { /* block private/special IPv4 LITERALS */ }
// no DNS resolution → a hostname that RESOLVES to 127.0.0.1 / 169.254.169.254 / 10.x is allowed
