Short explanation
IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway allows authenticated users to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) by exploiting the oauth_config.token_url parameter [S0]. This vulnerability permits unauthorized HTTP POST requests targeting internal network resources or cloud metadata endpoints [S0].
Authorized attackers can target internal services and retrieve sensitive response contents through error messages [S0].
What should be done?
- Following the provided vendor advisory documentation [S0].
- Applying available patches and updates [S0].
Chain of evidence and sources
IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway 0.1.0 ile 1.0.5 sürümleri arasındaki ürünler SSRF zafiyetinden etkilenmektedir.
Zafiyet, oauth_config.token_url parametresinin doğrulanmamasından kaynaklanmaktadır.
Show the technical text from the sources
IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway 0.1.0 through 1.0.5 is vulnerable to a server-side request Forgery (SSRF) that allows authenticated users with gateway creation privileges to perform arbitrary HTTP POST requests to internal network resources and cloud metadata endpoints. The vulnerability occurs during OAuth-enabled gateway registration when the system fails to validate the oauth_config.token_url parameter. When registering a gateway with OAuth client credentials authentication, an attacker can supply a malicious token_url pointing to internal services, cloud metadata endpoints (AWS IMDSv1, GCP, Azure), or localhost-bound services. The application immediately performs an HTTP POST request to the attacker-controlled URL with form-encoded credentials in the body. If the response cannot be parsed as a valid OAuth token response, up to 256 characters of the response body are reflected back to the attacker in the HTTP 502 error message. This vulnerability bypasses existing SSRF protections that are applied to the gateway.url field but not to OAuth configuration parameters.
