An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-16498 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- consul (Bitnami): affected from 0.3.0; fixed in 1.1.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16498/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16498/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-16498","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16498/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-16498","record":{"aliases":["BIT-consul-2026-16498","GHSA-vq72-755f-9mrm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Terraform MCP server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can reuse another user's Terraform token to execute tool calls in stateless HTTP mode, leading to unauthorized access and privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HashiCorp","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-488","name":"Exposure of Data Element to Wrong Session"}],"description":"The terraform-mcp-server before version 1.1.0 is vulnerable to a cross-tenant credential reuse issue in the streamable-HTTP stateless transport mode that may allow one user's Terraform token to be used to execute tool calls on behalf of subsequent users.
