CVE-2026-15526 Details
Description
A flaw has been found in augmnt augments-mcp-server 7.1.0. This issue affects the function scanProjectDeps of the file src/tools/v4/scan-project-deps.ts of the component scan_project_deps. Executing a manipulation of the argument packageJsonPath can lead to path traversal. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in Augmnt Augments-MCP-Server version 7.1.0. The issue arises in the scanProjectDeps function within the scan-project-deps.ts file. The vulnerability allows local attackers to manipulate the packageJsonPath argument, leading to unauthorized file access. When the specified path is a JSON file, its contents are fully disclosed. For non-JSON files, only partial content is leaked, along with a file existence oracle. Additionally, names of parsed JSON dependencies are exfiltrated to the npm registry, potentially allowing for further exploitation.
Users are advised to update to Augmnt Augments-MCP-Server version 7.1.1, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
