Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - dbt-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server for interacting with dbt. Prior to 1.17.1, DbtMCP.call_tool()
 in src/dbt_mcp/mcp/server.py logged the raw arguments dictionary at INFO level before each tool call and
 at ERROR level on exceptions, and configure_file_logging() wrote those records to dbt-mcp.log when
 DBT_MCP_SERVER_FILE_LOGGING=true, preserving sensitive sql_query, vars, and node_selection values in
 plaintext without automatic rotation or deletion. This issue is fixed in version 1.17.1. (CVE-2026-44969)
