CVE-2026-44969

dbt-mcp: Tool Arguments Including SQL Queries and Credentials Logged in Plaintext Without Redaction When File Logging Is Enabled

Published Jul 16, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 2.5 Low EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
dbt-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server for interacting with dbt. Prior to 1.17.1, DbtMCP.call_tool() in src/dbt_mcp/mcp/server.py logged the raw arguments dictionary at INFO level before each tool call and at ERROR level on exceptions, and configure_file_logging() wrote those records to dbt-mcp.log when DBT_MCP_SERVER_FILE_LOGGING=true, preserving sensitive sql_query, vars, and node_selection values in plaintext without automatic rotation or deletion. This issue is fixed in version 1.17.1.
