Description

pgEdge Postgres MCP Server enables SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases through Model Context Protocol compatible clients. Prior to 1.1.0, the HTTP transport did not validate the Origin header on incoming requests. A user who visited an attacker-controlled page could be targeted through DNS rebinding, allowing the page to reach a locally running server and read schemas and query results from configured databases. The issue affected deployments with the HTTP transport enabled on a machine that also ran a browser, while the default stdio transport was not reachable through this path. This issue is fixed in version 1.1.0.

Executive Summary

The vulnerability is in pgEdge Postgres MCP Server before version 1.1.0. It allows SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases via HTTP transport without validating the Origin header. This enables DNS rebinding attacks where an attacker can trick a user into visiting a malicious page that interacts with a locally running server to read database schemas and query results.

Detection Guidance

Check if pgEdge Postgres MCP Server is running version 1.1.0 or later. Inspect HTTP traffic for missing Origin header validation in the server logs. Verify if DNS rebinding attacks are possible by testing local server access from external domains.

Impact Analysis

If you use pgEdge Postgres MCP Server with HTTP transport enabled on a machine that also runs a browser, an attacker could exploit this to access your database schemas and query results. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure or manipulation of your database contents.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, potentially violating GDPR (data protection) and HIPAA (health information privacy) requirements. Organizations may face compliance violations, legal penalties, and reputational damage if exploited.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade pgEdge Postgres MCP Server to version 1.1.0 or later. Disable the HTTP transport if not required. Implement network-level protections against DNS rebinding attacks.
