validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-gqjq-cgxr-8c7c ↗EUVD-2026-77357 ↗
description
Bifrost transports before 2.1.0 permits unauthenticated registration of stdio MCP clients through its management API when authentication is disabled. An attacker who can reach that API can cause the gateway to launch a program using the Bifrost service account.
mitigation
Enable authentication for the management API and restrict its network exposure. Upgrade github.com/maximhq/bifrost/transports to version 2.1.0 or later.
fixed in 2.1.0
outcome
Upstream: a detection for this already ships elsewhere, so we didn't generate a new one. The credit goes to whoever did.
