CVE-2026-50143

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

The Apify MCP server enables AI agents to extract data from websites using ready-made scrapers, crawlers, and automation tools available on the Apify Store. Prior to 0.10.11, getActorMCPServerURL in src/mcp/actors.ts concatenates the trusted Actor standby URL with the attacker-controlled webServerMcpPath from an Actor definition without verifying the resulting origin, allowing a malicious Actor publisher to use a userinfo-style authority value to redirect connectMCPClient to a third-party host. The call-actor, fetch-actor-details, and actor-mcp tool-loading paths pass this URL to transports in src/mcp/client.ts that attach the victim Authorization bearer token, exposing the Apify API token and enabling access to Actors, stored data, and billable compute. A victim must invoke or inspect the attacker-controlled Actor. This issue is fixed in version 0.10.11.

      "value": "El servidor Apify MCP permite a los agentes de IA extraer datos de sitios web utilizando raspadores, rastreadores y herramientas de automatización prefabricados disponibles en la Tienda Apify. Antes de la versión 0.10.11, getActorMCPServerURL en src/mcp/actors.ts concatena la URL de reserva de Actor de confianza con la webServerMcpPath controlada por el atacante de una definición de Actor sin verificar el origen resultante, lo que permite a un editor de Actor malicioso usar un valor de autoridad de estilo userinfo para redirigir connectMCPClient a un host de terceros. Las rutas de carga de herramientas call-actor, fetch-actor-details y actor-mcp pasan esta URL a los transportes en src/mcp/client.ts que adjuntan el token portador de autorización de la víctima, exponiendo el token de la API de Apify y permitiendo el acceso a Actores, datos almacenados y cómputo facturable. Una víctima debe invocar o inspeccionar el Actor controlado por el atacante. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 0.10.11."
