CVE-2026-70595Network attack vectorHinoki check available

Blind internal-network requests via undisclosed validation

Published Aug 5, 2026 · Updated Aug 5, 2026

SSRF in Ghost 6.26.0 through 6.54.0 allows remote attackers to send limited HTTP requests to hosts on the server's internal network. The upstream advisory identifies Webmentions as one reachable function but does not disclose the validation locus or operation that accepts an internal destination. No authentication or user interaction is required, but the attack is blind: response data is not returned, and no integrity or availability impact is reported.
