Description

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

- GitHub MCP Server is GitHub's official MCP Server. From 0.22.0 until 1.1.2, when running in HTTP mode with
--lockdown-mode enabled, the RepoAccessCache is implemented as a process-global singleton initialized with
the first authenticated user's GraphQL client. All subsequent requests from different users share this
singleton and their lockdown-related GraphQL queries are executed using the first user's credentials. The
singleton is never updated to reflect later users' tokens. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.1.2.
(CVE-2026-48529)

Solution

Update the github.com/github/github-mcp-server library and its related packages to version 1.1.2 or later.
