Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-109527)
CWE-ID: CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to exhaust an MCP Python SDK server's memory and take it offline.
The vulnerability exists due to unbounded request body buffering in HTTP transports and OAuth endpoints when processing oversized requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a large request to a reachable OAuth endpoint or a server using default unauthenticated access, causing repeated denial of service where no upstream request size limit applies.
