Vulnerability details

The Model Context Protocol has a security warning advising servers to validate the "Origin" header on all incoming connections to prevent DNS rebinding attacks. Prior to the v0.25.0 release, users had no way to validate the origin's host. In v0.25.0,…

more

a new "--allowed-hosts" flag was introduced alongside the existing "--allowed-origins" flag, enabling users to specify permitted hosts at server startup. Both flags default to "*", allowing users to implement strict access controls as needed without breaking existing setups. If either flag is set to "*", the server will output a startup warning about potential vulnerabilities. Documentation has also been updated to highlight these security considerations.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

IA-9 Service Identification and Authentication
addresses: CWE-346

Requires unique identification of the service before communications, addressing failures to validate the origin of the interaction.

SC-11 Trusted Path
addresses: CWE-346

Trusted path establishment enforces validation that the communication originates from and reaches only the intended trusted system components.

SC-20 Secure Name/Address Resolution Service (Authoritative Source)
addresses: CWE-346

Enforces validation of the true origin of DNS responses via signatures and chain-of-trust mechanisms.

SC-21 Secure Name/Address Resolution Service (Recursive or Caching Resolver)
addresses: CWE-346

Enforces origin validation of name/address data, eliminating reliance on unverified or impersonated DNS sources.

SC-23 Session Authenticity
addresses: CWE-346

Mandates origin validation so that only legitimate endpoints can continue the authenticated session.
