9.1 CRITICAL

Tool caller controls pathParams with no extra privileges or interaction (PR:N/UI:N/AC:L/AV:N); traversal exposes and lets the credentialed client act on restricted endpoints (C:H/I:H), no availability impact (A:N).

DescriptionCVE.org

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the HTTP tool URL builder of googleapis/mcp-toolbox.

When constructing downstream API requests, the URL builder substitutes user-controlled pathParams into the configured tool path and parses the resulting string as a relative URL. While it checks that the input does not alter the scheme, host, or user info, it relies on ResolveReference for the final URL resolution. Because dot segments (../) are normalized during this resolution step, an attacker can supply path parameters containing directory traversal sequences to escape the operator-configured path scope. This allows the client to coerce the toolbox into making requests to unintended endpoints on the same target host while forwarding the toolbox's configured credentials (e.g., bypassing a restricted path like /api/v1/users/{{.id}} to reach /admin/secrets).

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in the HTTP tool URL builder of googleapis/mcp-toolbox allows unauthenticated remote attackers to escape the operator-configured API path and reach arbitrary endpoints on the same host. By supplying crafted path parameters containing dot segments (e.g., '../'), an attacker can coerce the toolbox to forward requests—including its configured credentials—to unintended paths such as /admin/secrets. No public exploit code is known, and EPSS probability is low (0.37%), but the vulnerability is automatable with high confidentiality and integrity impact.
