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
FastGPT is an AI Agent building platform. In versions 4.14.11 and prior, FastGPT's isInternalAddress() function in packages/service/common/system/utils.ts blocks cloud metadata endpoints using a fullUrl.startsWith() check against a hardcoded list. This check can be bypassed using at least 7 different URL encoding techniques, all of which resolve to the same cloud metadata service but do not match the blocklist patterns. Additionally, the broader private IP check (isInternalIPv4/isInternalIPv6) is disabled by default because CHECK_INTERNAL_IP defaults to false (not 'true'), so these bypasses reach the metadata endpoint without any further validation. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

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

FastGPT's isInternalAddress() function uses a weak fullUrl.startsWith() check against a hardcoded blocklist to prevent access to cloud metadata services (e.g., 169.254.169.254). This check can be bypassed using 7+ URL encoding techniques that resolve to the same metadata endpoint but don't match the blocklist patterns. Additionally, the broader CHECK_INTERNAL_IP validation is disabled by default (defaults to false), allowing these bypasses to reach the metadata service without further IP validation. This is an SSRF vulnerability enabling potential cloud metadata exposure.

MitigationEnable CHECK_INTERNAL_IP=true in configuration to activate robust private IP validation, and implement proper URL parsing that validates the resolved IP address rather than relying on string prefix matching against a blocklist.

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. Identify FastGPT version
    Locate the FastGPT version in package.json, docker-compose.yml, or by querying the running service's /api/manage version endpoint if available
    Affected if Version is 4.14.11 or lower
  2. Verify CHECK_INTERNAL_IP configuration
    Search configuration files (config.yaml, .env, or environment variables) for the CHECK_INTERNAL_IP setting
    Affected if CHECK_INTERNAL_IP is not set to 'true', is set to 'false', or is missing (defaults to false, enabling the bypass)
  3. Inspect isInternalAddress implementation
    Examine the source code or runtime behavior of the isInternalAddress() function in the FastGPT codebase for the use of fullUrl.startsWith() with a blocklist approach
    Affected if The function uses startsWith() against a blocklist rather than proper URL normalization and allowlist validation
  4. Confirm metadata endpoint accessibility
    Attempt an internal network request from the FastGPT server to 169.254.169.254 (cloud metadata IP) using various URL encodings to test if the SSRF is exploitable
    Affected if Requests to metadata endpoints succeed or return valid responses from cloud metadata services

A user is affected if running FastGPT version 4.14.11 or prior with CHECK_INTERNAL_IP not explicitly set to true, combined with the weak startsWith() blocklist validation that can be bypassed via URL encoding to reach cloud metadata endpoints.
