Technical details
The SSRF guard `validateServerUrl` performs only hostname string validation and does not perform DNS resolution, allowing an attacker to supply a hostname that resolves to internal, private, or cloud-reserved addresses (10.x.x.x, 127.x.x.x, 169.254.169.254). The vulnerability exists in `src/utils/http.ts` and affects all tools that accept a `server_url` parameter. The attack vector is network-based and unauthenticated in default HTTP deployments. An attacker can retrieve non-blind responses from internal services, including IMDS metadata endpoints. This is the third bypass of the same guard, with prior fixes (CVE-2026-33060, CVE-2026-53509) addressing only string literals and failing to implement DNS resolution. No official patch has been released.
