APIFold Vulnerable to Unauthenticated Webhook Event Injection
APIFold reads an OpenAPI 3.x or Swagger 2.x specification and generates a live, production-ready MCP server endpoint. Prior to commit 7f19b52280f414f57af2b79a95333d1c8fbeece5, the `/webhooks/:serverSlug/:eventName` endpoint accepts arbitrary unauthenticated JSON and stores it in Redis and the `webhook_events` PostgreSQL table without any signature check or authentication requirement. The root cause is that `createWebhookRouter` is called at `server.ts:188` without a `validators` map, so `receivers.ts:80`'s optional-chaining guard evaluates to `undefined` and the signature-validation block (`receiver.ts:81–95`) is unconditionally skipped. Any unauthenticated network client that knows a valid server slug can inject arbitrary payloads, which are subsequently served as trusted resource state to legitimate MCP clients. Commit 7f19b52280f414f57af2b79a95333d1c8fbeece5 patches the issue.
