SCA: security update for mcp (GHSA-jpw9-pfvf-9f58)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 444805

Description

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

- The MCP Python SDK, called mcp on PyPI, is a Python implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Prior to 1.27.2, the SSE and stateful Streamable HTTP transports mcp.server.sse.SseServerTransport and
mcp.server.streamable_http_manager.StreamableHTTPSessionManager route requests to existing sessions using
only the session_id query parameter or Mcp-Session-Id header without verifying the authenticated principal
that created the session, allowing a different bearer-token-authenticated client with a known session ID
to inject JSON-RPC messages into that session. This issue is fixed in version 1.27.2. (CVE-2026-52869)

Solution

Update the mcp library and its related packages to version 1.27.2 or later.
