Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Ghost (npm package ghost) versions from 6.0.9 up to 6.65.0 (exclusive) are affected, with the fix in 6.65.0. A validation flaw let an unauthenticated user, through features such as Webmentions, make limited HTTP requests to hosts on the server's internal network under some network configurations, though no response data is returned to the attacker. Upgrade to Ghost 6.65.0 or later.
