AI-suggested
Upgrade to version 0.23.0 or later of the modelcontextprotocol Ruby SDK, where this vulnerability is fixed. No other official remediation or temporary fixes are indicated. Patch status is not explicitly stated as 'patchAvailable' but the fix is confirmed in version 0.23.0.
Description
MCP Ruby SDK is the official Ruby SDK for Model Context Protocol servers and clients. Prior to 0.23.0, MCP::Server::Transports::StdioTransport and MCP::Client::Stdio in the mcp gem use IO#gets without a byte limit, allowing a peer that sends data without a newline to exhaust process memory. This issue is fixed in version 0.23.0.
