Executive Summary

This is a command injection vulnerability in NocteDefensor LudusMCP up to version 1.0.24. The issue occurs in the get_credential_from_user function where a user-controlled description parameter is passed directly into shell commands without proper escaping. This allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary local commands on the system running the MCP server.

Detection Guidance

Check if LudusMCP version 1.0.24 or earlier is installed by running: npm list -g ludusmcp or checking the version in package.json. Inspect the secretDialog.ts file for vulnerable functions like showMacDialog, showZenityDialog, showKDialogDialog, or showSimpleWindowsDialog. Look for execSync calls that use the description parameter without sanitization.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could execute arbitrary local commands on your system with the privileges of the MCP server process. This could lead to unauthorized file access, data theft, system compromise, or installation of malware. The attack requires local access or control over MCP tool invocation.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate compliance requirements that mandate secure credential handling and protection against unauthorized command execution. GDPR may be impacted if personal data is exposed through command execution. HIPAA could be violated if protected health information is compromised.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade LudusMCP to the latest version if available. If no patch exists, disable the get_credential_from_user tool or restrict access to it. Avoid using the MCP server in untrusted environments. Monitor for suspicious activity in /tmp or system logs.
