Host command execution via unsanitized imageUrl
Published May 2, 2026 · Updated May 2, 2026
OS command injection in R.Huijts Rijksmuseum MCP Server 1.0.0 through 1.0.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute host commands. The open_image_in_browser tool passes its imageUrl argument through only a type check before SystemIntegration builds a quoted command string for child_process.exec. Any user able to invoke the MCP tool can escape the quoted URL with shell metacharacters and run commands with the server process's privileges.
