CVE-2026-116684

MEDIUM CVSS 3.1: 6.8
Updated Oct 27, 2026
Modelcontextprotocol
Parameter Value
CVSS 6.8 (MEDIUM)
Type CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization)
Vendor Modelcontextprotocol
Public PoC No

The Model Context Protocol Python SDK is the official Python SDK for Model Context Protocol servers and clients. From 1.10.0 until 1.30.0 and 2.2.0, server-side bearer authentication configured through AuthSettings with token_verifier accepts a valid token issued for another service when the authorization server serves multiple resources and the TokenVerifier does not independently validate the aud audience. This resource-confusion flaw lets a token holder authenticate to the wrong MCP server and exercise that token's resulting access.

This issue is fixed in versions 1.30.0 and 2.2.0.
