high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445187

Description

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

- LiteLLM is a proxy server (AI Gateway) to call LLM APIs in OpenAI (or native) format. Prior to 1.84.0,
LiteLLM's MCP Streamable HTTP endpoint allowed an unauthenticated attacker to use a fabricated
Authorization header to trigger an OAuth2 passthrough fallback path that replaced failed LiteLLM key
validation with an empty UserAPIKeyAuth() object, allowing requests to reach MCP tooling without a valid
LiteLLM key. This issue is fixed in version 1.84.0. (CVE-2026-59822)

Solution

Update the litellm library and its related packages to version 1.84.0 or later.
