Ghost is a Node.js content management system. From 0.10.0 until 6.54.1, a Server-Side Request Forgery in Ghost Admin image fetching allowed any staff-level user to perform a blind HTTP GET request against internal hosts. No output was returned, but this could have been used to probe open ports on internal hosts. This issue is fixed in version 6.54.1.
CVE-2026-70591
This medium-severity CVE scores 4.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.4% (28th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
