MCP ContextForge: Global Prompts stored cross-site scripting compromises the Admin UI

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 10.06.2026 Published: 13.10.2026 Updated: 13.10.2026

MCP Context Forge provides an MCP Admin UI for managing gateway resources. From 0.2.0 until 0.3.1, the Global Prompts feature stores a prompt template without sufficient output encoding before the MCP Admin UI renders it. An authenticated attacker can save markup containing script-capable event handlers, and the code executes when another user views the saved prompt. The stored cross-site scripting can alter the interface, present phishing content, observe keystrokes available to the page, and act with the viewer's browser session. This issue is fixed in version 0.3.1.
