CVE-2026-9739 Details
Description
Vulnerable to DNS rebinding attacks when using SSE (http://b/499408790). During the beta phase, we implemented `allowed-origins` and `allowed-hosts` flags to align with MCP security guidelines. However, the hardcoded `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` header in the SSE initialization handler was inadvertently retained. This vulnerability specifically impacts users connecting via Toolbox using SSE under specification v2024-11-05.
A vulnerability in Google MCP Toolbox allows for DNS rebinding attacks by improperly handling Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers in Server-Sent Events (SSE) connections. The issue arises from a hardcoded 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *' header in the SSE initialization, which overrides the global CORS policy and fails to respect the 'allowed-origins' and 'allowed-hosts' flags intended to enhance security. This vulnerability affects users connecting through the Toolbox via SSE under specification v2024-11-05.
The vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.2.0 of Google MCP Toolbox by removing the hardcoded CORS header and allowing the global CORS middleware to manage origins based on administrator-configured flags.
