Technical details
DBHub's HTTP server attempts to prevent cross-origin browser attacks by comparing the `Origin` and `Host` header hostnames, then reflecting the validated origin into `Access-Control-Allow-Origin`. However, this check is insufficient against DNS rebinding: after an attacker-controlled hostname rebinds to the victim's DBHub server IP address, both headers contain the attacker's hostname, so the equality check passes. The vulnerability is in `/src/server.ts` middleware that does not enforce an explicit allowed-hosts policy. The HTTP `/mcp` endpoint accepts unauthenticated JSON-RPC method calls with no CSRF protection. Attack vector is network and requires victim browser interaction (visiting attacker-controlled website), but no authentication credentials. A successful exploit grants access to all MCP tools (e.g., `execute_sql`) with permissions inherited from the DBHub server process, enabling SQL injection, data exfiltration, and potentially data modification depending on configured permissions.
