AI-suggested

Upgrade the MCP Python SDK to version 3.0.3 or later, where the vulnerability is fixed. Until upgrading, only call tools on trusted servers. As a partial workaround, avoid calling tools whose outputSchema contains an $id or any $ref/$dynamicRef that does not start with '#'.

Description

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) Python SDK versions 1.10.0 through 1.29.1 and 2.0.0 through 2.1.1 contain a vulnerability where the client fetches server-declared external $ref URLs during tool output schema validation. This can cause the client to make network or local file requests synchronously without timeout, potentially stalling the client if the target is unresponsive. The issue is fixed in version 3.0.3.
