Technical details
A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) exists in @utcp/http due to a trust-boundary inconsistency between the discovery and invocation phases. While registerManual() performs initial validation, callTool() reuses the resolved URL from the tool template without re-validation, and OpenApiConverter blindly trusts the 'servers[0].url' field in fetched specifications. An attacker can host a malicious OpenAPI spec on a legitimate HTTPS endpoint that points to internal addresses like 127.0.0.1 or 169.254.169.254. Additionally, a prefix-bypass flaw in the discovery check allowed URLs like 'http://localhost.evil.com' to pass. The vulnerability is patched in version 1.1.2 by implementing strict hostname-based validation and re-validating URLs immediately before request execution.
