Internal service disclosure via DNS validation bypass
Published Sep 15, 2026 · Updated Sep 15, 2026
SSRF in web_url_read in Ihor Sokoliuk mcp-searxng 1.6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to read internal HTTP services. assertUrlAllowed() checks only the literal hostname before undiciFetch() resolves DNS, so a public-looking name can resolve to a private address. Default unauthenticated HTTP deployments expose the path remotely; STDIO deployments require prompt-influenced tool invocation, and successful access discloses reachable internal data.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
