CVE-2026-94044
Description
A flaw was found in 03-lovepreetSingh MCP. A remote attacker could exploit a path traversal vulnerability by manipulating the filePath or content arguments when calling the create_file function. This could allow the attacker to access or modify arbitrary files on the system, potentially leading to unauthorized data manipulation or system compromise.
Statement
Red Hat has rated this vulnerability as Important because an unauthenticated remote attacker can traverse directory paths to create or overwrite arbitrary files on the host filesystem, resulting in severe data integrity risks and potential remote execution. This flaw specifically resides within the third-party 03-lovepreetSingh MCP repository and is not packaged or distributed within any Red Hat enterprise offerings. Consequently, default installations and supported deployments of Red Hat products are not exposed to this vulnerability.
Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Integrity,Confidentiality,Availability
Technical Impact: Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
The attacker may be able to create or overwrite critical files that are used to execute code, such as programs or libraries.
Integrity
Technical Impact: Modify Files or Directories
The attacker may be able to overwrite or create critical files, such as programs, libraries, or important data. If the targeted file is used for a security mechanism, then the attacker may be able to bypass that mechanism. For example, appending a new account at the end of a password file may allow an attacker to bypass authentication.
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Files or Directories
The attacker may be able to read the contents of unexpected files and expose sensitive data. If the targeted file is used for a security mechanism, then the attacker may be able to bypass that mechanism. For example, by reading a password file, the attacker could conduct brute force password guessing attacks in order to break into an account on the system.
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
The attacker may be able to overwrite, delete, or corrupt unexpected critical files such as programs, libraries, or important data. This may prevent the product from working at all and in the case of protection mechanisms such as authentication, it has the potential to lock out product users.
