Payload: Improper access control for MCP API keys

Collected exploitation and prediction evidence

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

### Impact Under certain conditions, an authenticated user could manage MCP API keys outside their intended account allowing an attacker to escalate privileges through account takeover. Applications that do not use `@payloadcms/plugin-mcp` are not affected. ### Patches Users should upgrade to `@payloadcms/plugin-mcp` version `3.88.0` or later. ### Workarounds Upgrading is recommended. Until then, disable the MCP plugin or restrict MCP API-key management to trusted users.
