DescriptionCVE.org

MCPHub is a unified hub for centrally managing and dynamically orchestrating multiple MCP servers/APIs into separate endpoints with flexible routing strategies. Prior to version 1.0.29, MCPHub's PUT /api/system-config endpoint (handler updateSystemConfig) performs no authorization check. It is protected only by the app-wide authentication middleware and a rate limiter - it never inspects req.user.isAdmin. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.29.

AnalysisAI

Privilege escalation in MCPHub prior to version 1.0.29 allows any authenticated low-privilege user to modify system-wide configuration via the PUT /api/system-config endpoint. The handler updateSystemConfig never validates req.user.isAdmin, meaning the app-wide authentication middleware - which only confirms a valid session exists - is the sole barrier, granting any account holder effective administrative control over routing rules and server integrations. …
