CVE-2026-33010: mcp-memory-service's Wildcard CORS with Credentials Enables Cross-Origin Memory Theft
(updated )
When the HTTP server is enabled (MCP_HTTP_ENABLED=true), the application configures FastAPI’s CORSMiddleware with allow_origins=['*'], allow_credentials=True, allow_methods=["*"], and allow_headers=["*"]. The wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * header permits any website to read API responses cross-origin. When combined with anonymous access (MCP_ALLOW_ANONYMOUS_ACCESS=true) - the simplest way to get the HTTP dashboard working without OAuth - no credentials are needed, so any malicious website can silently read, modify, and delete all stored memories.
