hackmyagent is vulnerable to Path Traversal
82
High Risk
This Affects:
hackmyagentTL;DR
The bundled MCP server exposes a file-analysis tool that returns the contents of any absolute path it is given and can also write into arbitrary directories. Untrusted or prompt-injected input can drive the server to read sensitive files such as credentials and SSH keys or to place files outside the workspace. The fix requires a declared root and confines all operations with path traversal and symlink protections.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you run the bundled MCP server exposing the file-analysis tool to untrusted or prompt-influenced input.
