Advisories for Npm/Mcp-From-Openapi package

The published fix for GHSA-v6ph-xcq9-qxxj / CVE-2026-39885 added a direct hostname denylist for OpenAPI external $ref dereferencing, but the latest patched dependency mcp-from-openapi 2.3.0 still makes backend-origin requests to loopback when the target is reached through hostname resolution, redirects, or IPv4-mapped IPv6 syntax. FrontMCP latest release v1.2.1 and current main still call OpenAPIToolGenerator.fromURL() and OpenAPIToolGenerator.fromJSON() from mcp-from-openapi 2.3.0 when loading OpenAPI adapters.

This enables Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and local file read attacks when processing untrusted OpenAPI specifications.
