mcp-neo4j-cypher: SSRF and Data Modification via read_only Mode Bypass Through CALL Procedures

mcp-neo4j-cypher is an MCP server for executing Cypher queries against Neo4j databases. In versions prior to 0.6.0, the read_only mode enforcement can be bypassed using APOC CALL procedures, potentially allowing unauthorized write operations or server-side request forgery. This issue is fixed in version 0.6.0.

An issue was discovered in mcp-neo4j 0.3.0 allowing attackers to obtain sensitive information or execute arbitrary commands via the SSE service. NOTE: the Supplier's position is that authentication is not mandatory for MCP servers, and the mcp-neo4j MCP server is only intended for use in a local environment where authentication realistically would not be needed. Also, the Supplier provides middleware to help isolate the MCP server from external access (if needed).
