Description

Rapid7 Bulk Export MCP versions 0.2.5 through 0.6.1 suffer from a GraphQL query injection issue in the export-status component (`get_export_status` in `src/export_manager.py`), whereby the `export_id` value β€” an unvalidated MCP tool argument reaching the function via the `check_rapid7_export_status` and `download_rapid7_export` tools β€” is interpolated directly into the GraphQL query string. A crafted `export_id` containing quote and brace characters can terminate the intended `export(id: "...")` selection early and append attacker-controlled root-level selections (for example, schema introspection), producing a single well-formed GraphQL document that is then sent to the Rapid7 export API under the operator's own API key. Notably, this issue does not grant an existing actor any access they do not already have: every injected query executes within the operator's own already-authenticated API scope, using the operator's own valid API key, and cannot cross a tenant or account boundary. A directly-malicious operator gains nothing they could not already do by calling the API directly; the realistic exposure is limited to a compromised or careless upstream MCP client, or indirect prompt injection forwarding an unvalidated identifier. This is fixed in version 0.6.2, which passes `export_id` as a parameterized GraphQL variable (`$exportId: ID!`).

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a GraphQL query injection issue in Rapid7 Bulk Export MCP versions 0.2.5 through 0.6.1. The export_id parameter, passed via tools like check_rapid7_export_status and download_rapid7_export, is directly interpolated into a GraphQL query without validation. Attackers can craft export_id values to manipulate the query, appending malicious selections like schema introspection. The issue is fixed in version 0.6.2 by using parameterized GraphQL variables.

Impact Analysis

The impact is limited. The vulnerability allows query manipulation but executes within the operator's authenticated API scope. It does not grant unauthorized access or cross tenant/account boundaries. Realistic exposure is minimal, affecting only compromised or careless upstream MCP clients or indirect prompt injection scenarios.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Rapid7 Bulk Export MCP to version 0.6.2 or later to fix the GraphQL injection issue by using parameterized queries.
