Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Claude Code is an agentic coding tool. Prior to version 1.0.111, Claude Code contained insufficient URL validation in its trusted domain verification mechanism for WebFetch requests. The application used a startsWith() function to validate trusted domains (e.g., docs.python.org, modelcontextprotocol.io), this could have enabled attackers to register domains like modelcontextprotocol.io.example.com that would pass validation. This could enable automatic requests to attacker-controlled domains without user consent, potentially leading to data exfiltration. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.111.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Claude Code's WebFetch feature validated trusted domains using startsWith() comparison, allowing attackers to bypass validation by registering domains like modelcontextprotocol.io.example.com that start with the whitelisted domain. This enabled unauthorized automatic requests to attacker-controlled domains.

MitigationUpgrade Claude Code to version 1.0.111 or later, which implements proper URL/domain validation instead of startsWith() checking.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check if Claude Code is installed
    Run 'claude --version' in the terminal or look for Claude Code installation in standard locations like /usr/local/bin/claude, ~/.local/bin/claude, or via system package managers
    Affected if Claude Code is not installed - not affected
  2. Determine installed Claude Code version
    Execute 'claude --version' and compare the version number against the affected range (versions before 1.0.111 are vulnerable)
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.110 or lower - vulnerable if WebFetch is used
  3. Verify WebFetch feature is in use
    Review Claude Code configuration files in ~/.claude/ or project-specific .claude/settings.json for WebFetch or httpFetch settings, and check conversation history for any web request patterns
    Affected if WebFetch is enabled or has been used - vulnerability is applicable
  4. Check trusted domain configuration
    Examine Claude Code configuration files for any whitelisted/trusted domains specified for WebFetch functionality
    Affected if Trusted domains are configured using prefix-based validation - the startsWith() bypass could be exploited

You are affected if Claude Code version is below 1.0.111, the WebFetch feature is enabled or has been used, and trusted domains are configured for automatic web requests.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 1.0.111 or later
Fixed in 1.0.111
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Claude Code to version 1.0.111 or later, which implements proper URL/domain validation instead of startsWith() checking.

Recommended fix High confidence

1.0.111

  1. Upgrade Claude Code to version 1.0.111 or later to obtain the patched URL validation mechanism that properly validates trusted domains
