Submit #825401: indrasishbanerjee aem-mcp-server 1.0.0 Server-Side Request Forgeryinfo

Titleindrasishbanerjee aem-mcp-server 1.0.0 Server-Side Request Forgery
DescriptionA Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in the aem-mcp-server (version 1.0.0) within the getAssetMetadata tool. The application fails to validate the assetPath parameter, which is directly passed to an internal Axios-based HTTP client as this.httpClient.get(`${assetPath}.json`). An attacker can exploit this by providing a crafted protocol-relative URL (e.g., //127.0.0.1) or an absolute URL to force the server to initiate unauthorized outbound requests. This allows for internal port scanning, sensitive cloud metadata exfiltration, and probing of internal network resources that are not publicly accessible, potentially compromising the security of the entire infrastructure.
