CVE-2026-102503

CRITICAL 9.3 PoC AVAILABLE

Published 2026-10-19 · Last modified 2026-10-19

Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306) and Missing Authorization (CWE-862) in the /libp2p-http ingress server (StartIngressServer in cmd/sam-node/node.go) in Google OSS Agent Mesh (SAM) versions 0.1.0-alpha.1 through 0.1.0-alpha.2 allow an unauthenticated remote libp2p peer to bypass Biscuit capability policy enforcement and invoke arbitrary registered backend services (including command/stdio-backed MCP servers, A2A, and inference endpoints). While the MCP protocol stream handler enforces WithBiscuitAuth and Authorize checks, the parallel /libp2p-http ingress routes requests directly to backend service handlers without verifying a Biscuit token or mesh enrollment. Users should upgrade to version 0.1.0-alpha.3 or later.
