DescriptionCVE.org

IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information due to server-side request forgery via DNS rebinding.

AnalysisAI

Server-side request forgery via DNS rebinding in IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway allows a remote low-privileged attacker to pivot through the gateway into otherwise network-isolated internal resources, yielding high confidentiality impact and potential integrity impact against back-end services. The CVSS scope-change flag (S:C) reflects that a successful exploit extends the attack beyond the gateway itself to internal infrastructure it services. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires a low-privilege authenticated session on the IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway (PR:L per CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor CVSS of 8.2 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N) is broadly reasonable, though the AC:H classification deserves emphasis: successful DNS rebinding requires precise timing to race the gateway's DNS cache, meaningfully reducing opportunistic exploitation compared to straightforward SSRF. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Apply the vendor-released patch documented in IBM support advisory https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/7286055; exact patched version numbers should be confirmed directly from that advisory, as they are not independently derivable from the available data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: verify all IBM ContextForge MCP Gateway instances in production, document the network topology and backend resources they access, and assess which systems are most sensitive. …
