CVE-2026-55837
Published:June 19, 2026
Updated:August 27, 2026
The local OAuth helper FastAPI server bundled with "dbt-mcp" exposes the "GET /dbt_platform_context" endpoint without any form of authentication or host-origin validation. After a user completes the OAuth login flow against dbt Cloud (cloud.getdbt.com), the endpoint returns the full "DbtPlatformContext" object — including the victim's "access_token" and "refresh_token" for the dbt Platform API — verbatim to any caller that can reach "127.0.0.1:6785". An attacker who can direct the victim's browser to the helper origin via DNS rebinding, or who has co-located process access on the same host, can silently exfiltrate both tokens. The stolen bearer token grants full dbt Cloud API access as the victim; the refresh token enables persistent access beyond the original token's expiry. CVSS Base Score: 8.0 (High).
