Low priorityMedium4.3EPSS not scored yet

CVE-2026-123810 is a SQL injection in dynatrace-oss dynatrace-mcp, rated medium (4.3 on CVSS 3.1).

Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.

Published · Updated · NVD status: Received

What it is

Input is pasted into a database query, so an attacker can rewrite the query to read or change data.

How it is reached

An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, but someone has to act first, such as opening a file or following a link.

What an attacker gains

The direct impact is limited: partial access to data or a partial outage. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or change records in the data store behind the application.

Is it being exploited?

CISA's SSVC assessment notes a public proof of concept.

What to do

  1. Upgrade dynatrace-oss dynatrace-mcp to 2.1.1 or later.
  2. Until it is patched, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.
  3. Warn the people who use it, and filter files and links on the way in.

Description from NVD

Dynatrace MCP Server is an MCP server for Dynatrace Observability. Prior to 2.1.1, several read capabilities interpolate caller-controlled values into DQL without sufficient validation or escaping. The src/capabilities/find-monitored-entity-by-name.ts capability embeds entityNames in string searches, src/capabilities/list-problems.ts, src/capabilities/list-vulnerabilities.ts, and src/capabilities/list-exceptions.ts embed timeframe values, and src/capabilities/get-events-for-cluster.ts embeds timeframe, clusterId, and kubernetesEntityId. Crafted values can close string literals, append pipeline stages, or comment out the remaining intended query, allowing callers to bypass field selection, time-window, and result-display limits in tools marked readOnlyHint. The issue does not grant data access beyond the configured token's existing execute_dql capability, but it breaks the narrower auto-approved tool contract. This issue is fixed in version 2.1.1.

What this means for your architecture.

A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.

Components it touches

  • Services that build database or directory queries. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.
  • Databases. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.

Trust boundaries in play

  • Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
  • People who open files and links. Mail, chat and browsers are the delivery path.
  • Between the application and its data store. An attacker who crosses it can read or change records in the data store behind the application.

Questions to answer about your own systems

  • Where does dynatrace-oss dynatrace-mcp run in your systems, and at which version?
  • Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
  • What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
