CVE-2026-60105 — Monsta FTP security vulnerability

High CVSS 8.6

Monsta FTP before 2.14.5 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the fetchRemoteFile action caused by an incomplete IP blocklist check in the isBlockedIP() function, which fails to detect embedded IPv4 addresses within IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. An unauthenticated attacker can obtain a CSRF token from the public getSystemVars endpoint and submit a fetchRemoteFile request with a source URL resolving to an IPv4-mapped address, causing the server to issue HTTP requests to internal services and write responses to an attacker-controlled FTP destination, enabling retrieval of cloud instance metadata credentials.

Matched remediation archetype

Server-side request forgery and unintended proxying

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Inventory server-side URL fetchers, webhooks, importers, previews, redirects, proxies, and protocol handlers reachable from untrusted input.
  • Map egress paths to internal services, metadata endpoints, loopback, private address space, and privileged control planes.
  • Review DNS resolution, redirect, proxy, credential-forwarding, and URL parsing behavior without requesting sensitive targets.

Remediate safely

  • Replace arbitrary destinations with named integrations or a strict allowlist of schemes, hosts, ports, and paths.
  • Resolve and validate every destination and redirect hop, then enforce egress policy independently of application checks.
  • Remove ambient credentials and sensitive headers from fetchers; apply response size, time, and content limits.
