Description
The mem0 1.0.0 server lacks authentication and authorization controls for its memory reset and table re-creation functionality accessible via the DELETE /memories endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker can send a DELETE request that triggers a reset operation, leading to the execution of a CREATE TABLE SQL statement. This can cause unexpected table re-creation, schema disruption, potential data loss, and denial of service for the memory management service.

AI Analysis

Impact

The mem0 1.0.0 server allows unauthenticated users to issue a DELETE request to the /memories endpoint, which triggers a memory reset operation that internally executes a CREATE TABLE SQL statement. This flaw can lead to unintended table recreation, disruption of the database schema, potential data loss for stored memories, and availability problems for the memory management service.

Affected Systems

The affected product is mem0 version 1.0.0. No vendor or additional product information is provided.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by any attacker capable of sending HTTP requests to the mem0 server. Without authentication or authorization controls on the DELETE /memories endpoint, an attacker can trigger the reset operation and cause database schema changes, data loss, and denial of service. It carries a CVSS score of 6.5, indicating moderate severity, while the EPSS score is less than 1% and it is not listed in CISA KEV. The exploitability therefore relies on the attacker’s ability to reach the mem0 service over the network and send a crafted DELETE request.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade mem0 to a version that implements proper authentication and authorization for the /memories endpoint
  • If an upgrade is unavailable, restrict or block unauthenticated access to the DELETE /memories API using network firewall rules or API gateway authentication
  • As a temporary workaround, disable or remove the memory reset functionality in the server configuration to prevent the execution of the CREATE TABLE operation
