OX Security advisory: MCP STDIO configuration enables command execution across agent frameworks
OX Security reports that MCP's STDIO transport turns configuration into OS command execution, and that frameworks exposing that configuration to users, networks or prompt injection inherited remote code execution, with 12+ CVEs across projects such as LangFlow, LiteLLM, Flowise and Windsurf. The Hacker News reports Anthropic characterized the protocol behavior as expected and did not change the reference design.
