AI Analysis

Impact

A flaw in the xhs_publish_content function of Algovate's xhs-mcp allows a remote attacker to craft the media_paths argument so that the server performs HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs. This server‑side request forgery (SSRF) can expose internal resources, leak sensitive data, and potentially serve as a pivot for further compromise. The weakness is a classic input validation failure (CWE‑918).

Affected Systems

Algovate's xhs-mcp component, version 0.8.11, is affected by the SSRF flaw. No other versions are listed as vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates medium severity, while the EPSS score is not available. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can trigger the issue remotely, and the exploit has already been published, making the risk of exploitation moderate to high.

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update to a patched release of xhs-mcp once it becomes available
  • Restrict the server’s outbound network access to only necessary destinations via firewall rules
  • Validate and sanitize the media_paths input to reject non‑trusted URLs
