MCP Memory Keeper is an MCP server for persistent context management in AI coding assistants. Prior to 0.13.0, context_import in src/index.ts passes the caller-controlled filePath directly to fs.readFileSync without restricting the path to an export directory. An MCP client, including an LLM agent induced to call the tool, can use ../ traversal or an absolute path to target any file readable by the server process. A valid JSON file is parsed and imported into the caller's session, allowing its full contents to be retrieved through context_get or context_export, while JSON.parse errors for non-JSON files can return leading file bytes in a SyntaxError message. The two disclosure modes can expose other exported sessions, JSON credentials or service-account files, environment files, and portions of SSH keys or other local files. This issue is fixed in version 0.13.0.

GHSA-f7wf-v2vw-mpcx — mcp-memory-keeper: Arbitrary local file read in context_import via unvalidated filePath

Affected: npm: mcp-memory-keeper

### Impact

`context_import` passed the caller-supplied `filePath` directly to `fs.readFileSync` with no path confinement. A malicious MCP client — or an LLM agent that is prompt-injected into calling the tool — could point `filePath` at **any file readable by the server process**, outside any session or export directory:

- **Full disclosure (JSON files):** a valid-JSON target (e.g. another user's exported session, or a `*.json` credential / service-account file) is parsed and imported into the caller's session, then retrievable verbatim via `context_get` / `context_export`. - **Partial disclosure (any file):** for a non-JSON target (e.g. `/etc/passwd`, an SSH key, a `.env`), `JSON.parse` throws and V8 includes a snippet of the file's leading bytes in the `SyntaxError` message, which was returned verbatim to the caller.

Both `../` traversal and absolute paths worked — there was no path confinement of any kind.

In a typical MCP deployment the server runs on the developer's machine, so the reachable set includes other users' exported memory sessions, JSON credential/config files, and (in leading-bytes form) `.env` files, SSH keys, and `/etc/passwd`. The trigger is a tool argument, so the realistic threat model is an LLM agent prompt-injected into calling `context_import`, or any MCP client connected to the server.

### Patches

Fixed in **0.13.0** (PR #36):

- Imports are confined to a server-owned exports directory (`<DATA_DIR>/exports`, overridable via `MEMORY_KEEPER_EXPO…
