Device-management control via unchecked HTTP origins
Published Aug 25, 2026 · Updated Aug 25, 2026
Origin validation error in GeiserX GenieACS-MCP before 0.3.2 allows remote attackers to control GenieACS operations via DNS rebinding. The Streamable HTTP branch in cmd/server/main.go sends requests directly to the MCP handler without validating attacker-controlled Host or Origin headers. A victim must visit a malicious website while the unauthenticated HTTP transport is running; the site can then read or modify managed-device state.
