CVE-2026-123809: Dynatrace MCP Server template injection in workflow creation

CVE-2026-123809 · Severity: medium · CVSS 4.2 · Published 2026-11-09

Dynatrace MCP Server is a tool that integrates observability data into AI assistants. A vulnerability in the workflow creation feature allows attackers to inject template expressions that execute when workflows run, potentially disclosing sensitive event and tenant metadata to unauthorized Slack channels. The risk requires either manipulating the AI prompt or social engineering an operator to approve a malicious request.

Technologies: Dynatrace-Mcp-Server. Vendors: Dynatrace.

Technical details

The create_workflow_for_notification tool fails to sanitize caller-controlled inputs (teamName, problemType, channel) before inserting them into Dynatrace workflows, allowing Jinja2 template injection. When the workflow executes with a valid Slack connector, attackers can use expressions like event() to access and exfiltrate event and tenant metadata. The created workflow persists in the tenant even after the MCP session ends and defaults to tenant-visible unless explicitly marked private.
