CVE-2025-59163Network attack vector

Scan database disclosure via unchecked SSE headers

Published Sep 29, 2025 · Updated Sep 29, 2025

DNS rebinding in SafeDep Vet before 1.12.5 allows remote attackers to read scan database data through the SSE MCP server. The SSE transport accepts browser requests without validating the HTTP Host or Origin header, letting a rebound domain reach the loopback listener and invoke the sqlite3 query tool. Exploitation requires an SSE-mode MCP server on its default port with access to a saved scan database and active interaction by a user lured to an attacker-controlled site.
