CVE-2026-42345 is a server-side request forgery (ssrf) in FastGPT from labring. Upgrade to the patched build named in the labring advisory. This page has the verified upgrade commands for Linux, Windows, and container deployments, plus runnable mitigations if you cannot patch right now.
| Severity | CVSS 7.7 - High |
|---|---|
| Actively exploited? | Not listed on CISA KEV at time of writing |
| Affected | FastGPT: <= 4.14.11 |
| Fixed in | See vendor advisory for the patched build |
| Type (CWE) | CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) |
What is CVE-2026-42345?
CVE-2026-42345 is a server-side request forgery (ssrf) in FastGPT. 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. Full technical detail is in the vendor advisory and the NVD entry.
Why this CVE matters
The server-side request forgery (ssrf) class of flaw against FastGPT is the kind of issue attackers chain into broader access once they get a foothold. Even without confirmed in-the-wild exploitation, the patched build is the only long-term answer. Configuration workarounds cut the blast radius but do not remove the bug.
Am I affected?
Run the version check that matches your platform. If the installed build sits inside the affected range from the table above, the fix applies to you.
# Linux package check
dpkg -s fastgpt 2>/dev/null | grep -i version # Debian / Ubuntu
rpm -q fastgpt 2>/dev/null # RHEL / Rocky
How to fix CVE-2026-42345
Apply the patched build the vendor names in the advisory. The commands below are starting points keyed to common platforms; adapt the package name and target version to your environment.
npm / Yarn / pnpm
# Vendor advisory: https://github.com/labring/FastGPT/security/advisories/GHSA-jhqw-944x-xh94
# Update to the patched release named in the advisory
npm install fastgpt@latest
# or pin to the exact fixed version from the vendor advisory
npm install fastgpt@<patched-version>
npm ls fastgpt
PyPI (pip / Poetry)
# Vendor advisory: https://github.com/labring/FastGPT/security/advisories/GHSA-jhqw-944x-xh94
pip install --upgrade fastgpt
pip show fastgpt | grep -i version
# Poetry:
poetry add fastgpt@^<patched-version>
Docker / container
# Vendor advisory: https://github.com/labring/FastGPT/security/advisories/GHSA-jhqw-944x-xh94
docker pull <your-registry>/fastgpt:<patched-tag>
docker stop <app> && docker rm <app>
docker run -d --name <app> <your-registry>/fastgpt:<patched-tag>

After the upgrade, restart any service that loads the patched binary so the new code is actually running.
If you can't patch immediately
Patching is the only durable fix. These mitigations cut exposure while the change window is scheduled. They do not remove the vulnerability.
# No vendor-published workaround for CVE-2026-42345 beyond the patch.
# Reduce the blast radius until the patched build is deployed:
# - Restrict network access to the affected service to known admin hosts
# - Disable the vulnerable feature in config if the product allows it
# - Increase logging on the affected endpoints and watch for IoCs
How to verify the fix worked
After applying the patched build, confirm the version string matches the fixed release named in the labring advisory.
dpkg -s fastgpt | grep -i version # Debian / Ubuntu
rpm -q fastgpt # RHEL / Rocky
Run an authenticated vulnerability scan with a current signature set and confirm the scanner no longer flags CVE-2026-42345. For internet-facing deployments that were unpatched during the disclosure window, review logs for the affected endpoints over the full exposure period and rotate any credentials the vulnerable process could touch.
Frequently asked questions
Is CVE-2026-42345 being exploited in the wild?
At time of writing, CVE-2026-42345 is not on CISA's KEV list. Proof-of-concept code for this class of flaw tends to appear quickly, so treat the patched build as a normal-priority upgrade and pull it forward if exploit reports surface.
What is the CVSS score for CVE-2026-42345?
The CVSS base score is 7.7 (High). Full vector detail is on the NVD entry.
Will a firewall rule or WAF signature fully mitigate CVE-2026-42345?
No. Network-layer filters slow opportunistic scanners and block a subset of payloads, but a focused attacker who knows the bug will work around them. The vendor patch is the only durable fix.
Do I need to assume compromise if the affected service was internet-facing and unpatched?
Not automatically, but log review is cheap insurance. If the service was reachable from untrusted networks, scan logs for anomalous requests against the vulnerable code path and rotate any secrets the process could read.
