Description
Summary
The mcp-security framework fails to implement the mandatory SSRF mitigations outlined in the Model Context Protocol (MCP) security specifications. Specifically, it processes untrusted URLs for OAuth-related discovery and metadata without verifying if the targets are malicious or internal to the network.
This only affects installations with Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) enabled:
```properties
spring.ai.mcp.client.authorization.dynamic-client-registration.enabled=true
```
DCR does not validate URLs exposed by MCP Servers (protected resource metadata URL, authorization server URL) and Authorization Servers (all OAuth2 endpoints).
Workaround
When users need to perform DCR, they may provide their own `McpOAuth2ClientManager`. Both `McpMetadataDiscoveryService` and `DynamicClientRegistrationService` are also affected, if used, users should provide their own subclasses.
Alternatively, users can provide the default implementations of these classes with a `RestClient` that implements URL filtering through `ClientHttpRequestInterceptor`.
