Augmnt · Augments-Mcp-Server · CVE-2026-15526
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
augmnt augments-mcp-server version 7.1.0
**Description**
A path traversal flaw exists in the `scanProjectDeps()` function within the `src/tools/v4/scan-project-deps.ts` file of the `scan project deps` component. This issue occurs when the `packageJsonPath` argument is manipulated, allowing a local attacker to access files outside the intended directory. Path traversal is a technique used to access files and directories that are stored outside the web root folder by manipulating variables such as file paths.
**Recommendations**
As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of the `packageJsonPath` argument in the `scanProjectDeps()` function until a fix is available.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
