Description
Ghost, a Node.js content management system, contained a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in versions from 6.26.0 up to but not including 6.54.1. This flaw allowed unauthenticated users to abuse certain features, such as Webmentions, to make limited HTTP requests to internal network hosts of the Ghost server. Although the attack did not return response data, it could potentially be used to probe internal network resources. The vulnerability is fixed in version 6.54.1.
