MCPVault: PathFilter restricted directories (.git/.obsidian/node_modules) only denied at vault root, not nested

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.

Published

MCPVault is a lightweight Model Context Protocol server for safe access to files in an Obsidian vault. Prior to 0.11.5, PathFilter in src/pathfilter.ts uses root-anchored deny-list patterns, so nested .git, .obsidian, and node_modules path segments do not match the restriction and pass both isAllowed() and isAllowedForListing(). An attacker who influences a path selected by an AI agent can traverse nested repository or Obsidian metadata, read remote URLs or embedded tokens, or cause nested node_modules content to pollute the listAllTags index. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.5.

Published

PathFilter's deny-list glob patterns are anchored, so `.git`, `.obsidian`, and `node_modules` were only blocked at the vault root. Nested copies inside the vault (e.g. `tools/cli/node_modules/...`, `tools/somerepo/.git/config`, a nested `.obsidian/`) were fully traversable via isAllowed/isAllowedForListing. Impact: a nested `.git/config` (remote URLs / embedded tokens) and nested `.obsidian` contents could be read, under the same prompt-injection threat model as GHSA-j99q-93c9-h869 (an attacker influences the path an agent reads). It also caused nested `node_modules` to pollute the tag index (#128, the public symptom). Fixed in 0.11.5 by denying these restricted names at any path depth (matched case-insensitively as any path segment).
