Apple CoreGraphics zero-day exploited in targeted attacks

An Apple CoreGraphics zero-day exploited in targeted attacks headlines this run, alongside an MCP Python SDK flaw enabling OAuth credential theft.

๐Ÿ“‹ ADVISORIES

  • Official MCP Python SDK Flaw Lets Malicious Servers Steal OAuth Credentials A flaw in the official MCP Python SDK let malicious MCP servers trick client applications into sending OAuth credentials to attacker-controlled endpoints.
    • Affects apps using the MCP Python SDK as an MCP client over HTTP with OAuthClientProvider, ClientCredentialsOAuthProvider, PrivateKeyJWTOAuthProvider, or deprecated RFC7523OAuthClientProvider; versions 1.9.1โ€“1.29.1 (1.x) and 2.0.0โ€“2.1.1 (2.x) are vulnerable.
    • Malicious servers could redirect the client to an attacker-controlled token endpoint, capturing the client secret, authorization code, and PKCE proof key, enabling account takeover with the app's permissions.
    • The client secret is long-lived and remains valid until rotated; the two machine-to-machine providers require no user interaction, while the interactive provider shows the genuine login page.
    • Fixed in SDK versions 1.30.0 (1.x) and 2.2.0 (2.x), which validate the expected issuer before fetching server metadata; rated 7.5 (machine-to-machine) and 6.5 (interactive), with no CVE assigned as of September 29.
    • Reported by Cycode; no exploitation observed. For ClientCredentialsOAuthProvider and PrivateKeyJWTOAuthProvider, upgrading alone is insufficient โ€” an issuer= parameter must also be set. ๐Ÿ“„ Source: github.com ยท ๐Ÿ“Ž Coverage: thehackernews.com ยท ๐Ÿ‘ via The Hacker News
