Description
Impact
The Streamable HTTP transport was constructed without enableDnsRebindingProtection/allowedHosts/allowedOrigins and performed no Origin-header validation. With the documented auth.mode: "none" loopback default, a drive-by web page could POST http://127.0.0.1/mcp and receive caller http-local with scopes ["*"] — full vault read/write — via DNS rebinding / a forged Origin.
Patches
Fixed in 1.3.1. Upgrade to >= 1.3.1. The transport now enables DNS-rebinding protection and allowed hosts/origins and returns HTTP 403 on an invalid Origin (per MCP 2025-11-25).
Workarounds
Do not expose the HTTP transport with auth.mode: "none"; require JWT auth, or bind to a non-loopback interface behind a proxy that validates Origin.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for obsidian-tc, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update obsidian-tc to 1.3.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-77363 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
