An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-7212 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- notes-mcp (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.1.4; no fix listed\n- notes-mcp (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.1.4; no fix listed\n- notes-mcp (PyPI): affected all versions up to 0.1.4; no fix listed\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-2026-7212/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7212/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-7212","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-7212/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-7212","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vc5j-42hh-j3mr","PYSEC-2026-2684"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python MCP library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit path traversal in notes-mcp to read or modify arbitrary files via the root_dir/path argument.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulDB","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A security vulnerability has been detected in edvardlindelof notes-mcp up to 0.1.4.
