CVE-2026-55546: CWE-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in QWED-AI qwed-mcp

VulnerabilityCVE-2026-55546cvecve-2026-55546cwe-94
Published: 08/25/2026 (08/25/2026, 15:25:34 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: QWED-AI
Product: qwed-mcp

Description

QWED-MCP is a deterministic verification gateway for MCP. Prior to 0.2.1, verify_math_expression() in src/qwed_mcp/engines/math_engine.py passes attacker-controlled expression and claimed_result strings directly to SymPy's parse_expr() after only normalizing caret syntax to Python exponent syntax, without restricting global_dict, removing Python built-ins, or validating the expression AST. Because parse_expr() calls Python's eval() with built-ins available, an attacker who can cause a downstream caller to pass untrusted input to this public library function can use Python import functionality to execute arbitrary operating-system commands as the qwed-mcp process user, read or modify accessible data, exfiltrate process secrets, or reach internal services. The default MCP tool registry does not expose verify_math_expression(), so exploitation requires a downstream integration that invokes the library API with attacker-controlled input. This issue is fixed in version 0.2.1.
