Unauthenticated server crash via unbounded request body
Published Apr 16, 2026 · Updated Apr 16, 2026
Denial of service in QuantGeekDev MCP Framework 0.2.21 and earlier allows remote attackers to crash HTTP servers with a large POST request. HttpStreamTransport.readRequestBody concatenates every request chunk into a string without enforcing the configured maxMessageSize limit. The /mcp handler reaches this code before optional authentication, so one unauthenticated request can exhaust process memory and stop the service.
