Description
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 1.0.30, MCPHub scopes non-admin users to servers they own (list views and config edits enforce ownership), but the tool-execution API does not. Any authenticated non-admin user can invoke tools on MCP servers owned by other users — servers they cannot even see in GET /api/servers. Because connected MCP servers carry real capability (filesystem, HTTP fetch, cloud APIs with the owner's keys), this is cross-tenant compromise: demonstrated arbitrary host file read (/etc/passwd, another user's secrets) and SSRF. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.30.

AI Analysis

Impact

MCPHub had a horizontal IDOR in its tool-execution API that allowed any authenticated non‑admin user to invoke arbitrary tools on MCP servers owned by other users. The vulnerability permitted the attacker to read files on the host (such as "/etc/passwd" and user secrets) and perform server‑side request forgery against internal endpoints. This flaw is an example of CWE‑639: Unauthorized Access to Privileged Data.

Affected Systems

The affected product is MCPHub from samanhappy. Versions prior to 1.0.30 allowed the exploit; the issue was patched in release 1.0.30 and later versions. All other versions remain vulnerable until updated.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.7 indicates high severity. EPSS is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack requires a valid non‑admin user account and does not rely on privileged access or administrative credentials. Because the attacker can invoke any available tool, the risk of further compromise is significant once an account is compromised.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade MCPHub to version 1.0.30 or newer where the tool‑execution API is properly scoped to server ownership.
  • Ensure that only users with appropriate administrative privileges can invoke the tool execution endpoint; revoke or limit non‑admin access.
  • Monitor logs for unexpected tool execution requests and enforce network segmentation to restrict the MCPHub server’s outbound connections to trusted endpoints.
