CVE-2026-64684

medium

Description

RMCP is an official Rust SDK for the Model Context Protocol. Prior to 2.1.0, the rmcp crate's StreamableHttpClientTransport in crates/rmcp/src/transport/common/reqwest/streamable_http_client.rs builds its default_http_client with reqwest's automatic redirect policy and applies caller-supplied values from StreamableHttpClientTransportConfig.custom_headers without marking them as sensitive. When a malicious or compromised MCP endpoint returns a cross-origin 307 or 308 redirect, reqwest follows the redirect and apply_custom_headers causes custom API keys or authentication tokens to be replayed to the new origin, where an attacker can capture and reuse them. The separate auth_header path is not affected because it uses the standard Authorization header, which reqwest strips on cross-origin redirects. This issue is fixed in version 2.1.0.
