GHSA-cc2g-gq8c-r332: grok-faf-mcp has an arbitrary local file read via unconfined `path` argument in FAF tools

August 19, 2026

Several grok-faf-mcp MCP tools accept a caller-controlled path argument and resolve it (~ expansion + path.resolve()) straight into a filesystem read without confining it to a trusted project directory. An absolute path or ../ traversal is resolved and used as-is, so the server process can be made to read files outside the intended .faf project context. The only remaining limit is OS file permissions.
