Description
In consul-mcp-server, versions 0.1.0 up to 0.1.3 did not properly isolate session state in stateless mode, which may allow one client's Consul authentication token to be used for subsequent requests from other clients. This vulnerability (CVE-2026-16326) is fixed in consul-mcp-server 0.1.4.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a session isolation weakness (CWE‑488) in consul‑mcp‑server when operating in stateless mode. A legitimate client’s authentication token can be captured by another client, allowing malicious actors to impersonate other tenants and perform actions on their behalf.

Affected Systems

HashiCorp’s consul‑mcp‑server, versions 0.1.0 through 0.1.3, running in stateless mode with streamable‑HTTP.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 10 reflects a severe, full‑breach risk. The EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a low probability of exploitation at present, yet the vulnerability remains exploitable via malicious network traffic to the stateless endpoint. It is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. If an attacker can send crafted requests, they can reuse a valid authentication token from one tenant for subsequent requests from another tenant, bypassing tenant isolation.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade consul‑mcp‑server to version 0.1.4 or later.
  • Restart the service to load the new configuration and ensure session isolation is restored.
  • Verify that authentication tokens cannot be reused across tenants by testing with distinct client sessions.
