Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-0621)
CWE-ID: CWE-1333 - Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity
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 deny service to all clients of affected MCP servers.
The vulnerability exists due to catastrophic regular expression backtracking in the TypeScript SDK's UriTemplate class when matching crafted URIs against registered resource templates with exploded array patterns. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a crafted URI through a resources/read request to exhaust CPU resources and hang or crash the server.
