AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, users should consider restricting access to the mcp-toolbox service and carefully validate or sanitize any user-controlled input that influences HTTP requests. Monitoring for unusual outbound requests from the toolbox environment may help detect exploitation attempts.

Description

CVE-2026-14540 is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Google mcp-toolbox versions 0.3.0 through 1.4.0. The vulnerability arises because the HTTP client used by the toolbox does not enforce restrictive redirect policies or validate target IPs, allowing attackers to manipulate redirections. This can cause the toolbox to make unauthorized requests to internal or arbitrary external endpoints. The vulnerability has a high severity score of 8. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available.
