Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in maquina-app rails-mcp-server up to 1.6.0. Affected is the function spawn of the component Pseudo-terminal library. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a sandbox vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-265. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
The execute_ruby tool is documented as a read-only Ruby sandbox and is enforced by a pattern denylist together with replacements for the process-spawning methods on Kernel. The pseudo-terminal library's spawn entry points are neither in the denylist nor replaced, so a normal tool call could reach them and start a shell, executing commands as the account running the server and outside the guarded methods. The denylist was introduced with the tool in 1.4.0 and never covered those entry points through 1.6.0. Version 1.6.1 restricts the requires the sandbox permits to a data-only list and blocks dynamic dispatch to execution entry points; 2.0.0 removes the tool.
The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-81097 since 08/26/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. This vulnerability is assigned to T1611 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.
