The MCP Server at https://github.com/Sunwood-ai-labs/github-kanban-mcp-server/ is written in a way that is vulnerable to command injection vulnerability attacks as part of some of its MCP Server tool definition and implementation. Vulnerable tool The MCP Server exposes the tool add_comment which relies on Node.js child process API exec to execute the GitHub (gh) command, is an unsafe and vulnerable API if concatenated with untrusted user input. Data flows from the tool definition here which takes in args.issue_number and calls handleAddComment() in this definitino that uses exec in an insecure way. Vulnerable line of code: https://github.com/Sunwood-ai-labs/github-kanban-mcp-server/blob/main/src/handlers/comment-handlers.ts#L8-L23 “`js export async function handleAddComment(args: { repo: string; issue_number: string; body: string; state?: 'open' | 'closed'; }): Promise { const tempFile = 'comment_body.md'; try { // ステータスの変更が指定されている場合は先に処理 if (args.state) { try { const command = args.state === 'closed' ? 'close' : 'reopen'; await execAsync( gh issue ${command} ${args.issue_number} –repo ${args.repo} ); “` Exploitation Proof of Concept When LLMs are tricked through prompt injection (and other techniques and attack vectors) to call the tool with input that uses special shell characters such as ; rm -rf /tmp;# (be careful actually executing this payload) and other payload variations, the full command-line text will be…Read More
