CVE-2026-49257

mcp-pinot is a Python-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Apache Pinot. In versions 3.0.1 and below, mcp-pinot defaults to running an HTTP MCP server bound to 0.0.0.0:8080 with no authentication enabled. All MCP tools, including SQL query execution, schema creation, and table-config mutation, are reachable by any network-adjacent caller. The server proxies these calls using server-side Pinot credentials, producing a confused-deputy condition that yields full read/write access to the configured Pinot cluster. This issue has been fixed in version 3.1.0

Analysis

mcp-pinot permite el acceso total de lectura y escritura a clusters de Apache Pinot debido a que el servidor HTTP carece de autenticación por defecto y escucha en todas las interfaces de red. Cualquier atacante con acceso a la red puede ejecutar consultas SQL arbitrarias, crear esquemas y modificar configuraciones de tablas. Es imperativo actualizar a la versión 3.1.0 para evitar la exposición total de la base de datos vinculada.

How to read this card

Actively exploited

KEV (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities) is CISA's catalog of CVEs confirmed as actively exploited in the real world. If a CVE is on KEV, someone is already using it in attacks.

CVSS 10.0

CVSS 10.0 — máxima severidad teórica. Explotable de forma remota, sin privilegios, con impacto total. Aún no confirmada como explotada en el mundo real, pero parchea ya.
