SCA: security update for meta-ads-mcp (GHSA-45gf-fjxp-cjpq)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444843

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Meta Ads MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants run Meta Ads. Prior to
 version 1.0.115, the upload_ad_image tool in meta_ads_mcp/core/ads.py passes an attacker-controlled
 image_url to try_multiple_download_methods() in meta_ads_mcp/core/utils.py, where httpx.AsyncClient uses
 follow_redirects=True and performs HTTP requests without validating the scheme, host, or resolved IP
 address. In a streamable-http deployment, a network caller can use any non-empty authorization value
 because Meta credential validation occurs after the image download, then direct the server to loopback
 services, private-network addresses, cloud metadata endpoints, or redirect-chained internal targets. The
 resulting server-side request forgery can expose internal data, invoke state-changing internal services,
 or disrupt reachable services. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.115. (CVE-2026-54549)

Solution

Update the meta-ads-mcp library and its related packages to version 1.0.115 or later.
