Published Sep 15, 2026 CVSS 9.8

@zereight/mcp-gitlab is a Model Context Protocol server for GitLab. Prior to version 2.1.27, the SSE transport mode (SSE=true) exposes all MCP tools without any authentication. The upload_markdown tool reads arbitrary files from the server's local filesystem via an unsanitized file_path parameter and uploads them to a GitLab project. Combined, any unauthenticated network-reachable attacker can read /proc/self/environ to steal the server's GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN and achieve full GitLab account takeover. This is the default configuration for Docker deployments. Version 2.1.27 contains a patch.
