Summary

CVE-2025-53100 is a high-severity OS Command Injection (CWE-78) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 8.6 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked in the top 33% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as AI Agent Protocols and Integrations; in the Protocol-Specific Risks risk domain.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

RestDB's Codehooks.io MCP Server, an MCP server component on the Codehooks.io platform, is affected by a command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) in versions prior to 0.2.2. The flaw stems from insecure definition and implementation of certain MCP Server tools, allowing injection of operating system commands.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger the issue via a user-initiated interaction with a running MCP Server instance, achieving full control over host commands with high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The CVSS 4.0 vector reflects network attack reachability, low complexity, and no required privileges.

The vulnerability has been addressed in version 0.2.2, as documented in the project's GitHub security advisory GHSA-fhq6-jf5q-qxvq and the associated commits that remediate the affected tool implementations. The EPSS score remains low with negligible movement between its current value of 0.0181 and recorded peak of 0.0197.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing or incorrect command sanitization during development.

Input validation directly neutralizes or rejects special characters that would otherwise alter OS command structure.

Least privilege reduces the permissions available to any process that could be subverted by injected commands.

Least functionality restricts available OS commands and interpreters, limiting the blast radius of injection.

Secure engineering principles require proper neutralization of untrusted input before command construction.

PR.PS-06 mostly match

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly require secure coding and input handling that blocks command-injection defects, yet the single broad outcome leaves many specific neutralization vectors and verification gaps unaddressed.

PR.PS-02 partial match
prevents

Routine patching/maintenance can remediate known command-injection CVEs in dependencies (partial forward) but does nothing to stop developers from introducing improper neutralization in custom code (none reverse).
