GHSA-6prh-2h8m-c8cw: Infoleak

Summary In affected versions, the SDK's HTTP client transports and OAuth requests followed redirects to any origin.

If an MCP server or authorization server redirected a request to another origin, that origin received custom request headers (such as an X-API-Key set in requestInit.headers) and the mcp-session-id header. On a 307 or 308 it also received the request body, including OAuth token requests with their refreshtoken and clientsecret.

On current runtimes fetch already drops the Authorization header across origins.

Am I affected? Yes, if your application uses StreamableHTTPClientTransport, SSEClientTransport, or the SDK's OAuth client functions such as auth(). stdio clients are not affected.

Affected versions:

- @modelcontextprotocol/sdk all versions through 1.31.0 - @modelcontextprotocol/client 2.0.0 through 2.2.0

Fix Upgrade to:

- 1.x: @modelcontextprotocol/sdk 1.32.0 or later - 2.x: @modelcontextprotocol/client 2.3.0 or later

Redirects are now followed only within the same origin, and not at all in browsers. If your MCP server or authorization server redirects to another origin on purpose, configure the final URL instead. Setting redirectPolicy: 'follow' on a transport restores the old behaviour and the exposure.

If a redirect may have reached a host you do not control, rotate the API keys and clientsecret your application held and revoke its tokens.

If you cannot upgrade yet, pass a fetch that refuses redirects, for example (url, init) => fetch(url, { ...init, redirect: 'error' }).
