The affected context

Affected versions, configuration prerequisites and known exclusions are public. Confirm each one against the deployed service.

obsidian-tc

source listed
  • < 1.3.1

### Impact The Streamable HTTP transport was constructed without `enableDnsRebindingProtection`/`allowedHosts`/`allowedOrigins` and performed no `Origin`-header validation. With the documented `auth.mode: "none"` loopback default, a **drive-by web page could `POST http://127.0.0.1/mcp`** and receive caller `http-local` with scopes `["*"]` — full vault read/write — via DNS rebinding / a forged Origin. ### Patches Fixed in **1.3.1**. Upgrade to `>= 1.3.1`. The transport now enables DNS-rebinding protection and allowed hosts/origins and returns HTTP 403 on an invalid Origin (per MCP 2025-11-25). ### Workarounds Do not expose the HTTP transport with `auth.mode: "none"`; require JWT auth, or bind to a non-loopback interface behind a proxy that validates `Origin`.

03 / Response

What to do next

  1. investigate

    Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.

    Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. FIRST EPSS

  2. vendor patch

    The original advisory lists fixed boundaries 1.3.1 for obsidian-tc. Confirm the publisher’s latest guidance.

    Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database via OSV

A fixed release is not deployment evidence.

Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
