Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The mysql-mcp-server package before 0.4.2 is vulnerable when run in SSE/HTTP transport mode (MCP_TRANSPORT=sse); the default stdio mode is not affected. The service has no authentication and no Origin/Host validation, so a network attacker can run arbitrary SQL via execute_sql, and a victim's browser can be used for DNS rebinding to reach a local instance. Upgrade to version 0.4.2, which enables DNS-rebinding protection and recommends binding to 127.0.0.1.
