GHSA-4jcv-vp96-94xr: MindsDB Vulnerable to Bypass of SSRF Protection with DNS Rebinding

### Summary DNS rebinding is a method of manipulating resolution of domain names to let the initial DNS query hits an address and the second hits another one. For instance the host `make-190.119.176.200-rebind-127.0.0.1-rr.1u.ms` would be initially resolved to `190.119.176.200` and the next DNS issue to `127.0.0.1`. Please notice the following in the latest codebase: ```python def is_private_url(url: str): """ Raises exception if url is private :param url: url to check """ hostname = urlparse(url).hostname if not hostname: # Unable to find hostname in url return True ip = socket.gethostbyname(hostname) return ipaddress.ip_address(ip).is_private ``` As you can see, during the call to `is_private_url()` the initial DNS query would be issued by `ip = socket.gethostbyname(hostname)` to an IP (public one) and then due to DNS Rebinding, the next GET request would goes to the private one. ### PoC ```python from flask import Flask, requ...
