Meta Ads MCP: Unauthenticated HTTP MCP Tool Execution Leaks Operator Meta Access Token

Assigner: GitHub_M

Meta Ads MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants run Meta Ads. Prior to version 1.0.109, AuthInjectionMiddleware.dispatch() at http_auth_integration.py:272 unconditionally forwards unauthenticated Streamable HTTP requests to downstream MCP tool handlers without issuing a 401 response, allowing any network-reachable caller to invoke MCP tools without authentication. When no per-request credential is present, tool handlers fall back to the META_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable, and when the downstream Meta Graph API call fails, api.py:263–269 serialises the raw httpx request URL—including the operator's access_token as a query parameter—into the JSON-RPC response body, delivering the credential to the unauthenticated caller. Version 1.0.109 fixes the issue.
