SCA: security update for github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk (GHSA-89xv-2j6f-qhc8)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 439243

Description

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

- The Go MCP SDK used Go's standard encoding/json. Prior to version 1.4.1, the Go SDK's Streamable HTTP
transport accepted browser-generated cross-site `POST` requests without validating the `Origin` header and
without requiring `Content-Type: application/json`. In deployments without Authorization, especially
stateless or sessionless configurations, this allows an arbitrary website to send MCP requests to a local
server and potentially trigger tool execution. Version 1.4.1 contains a patch for the issue.
(CVE-2026-33252)

Solution

Update the github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk library and its related packages to version 1.4.1 or later.
