What is CVE-2026-30615?

A prompt injection vulnerability exists in Windsurf 1.9544.26, enabling remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands on affected systems. The flaw arises when the application processes HTML content controlled by attackers. This can lead to unauthorized changes to the local MCP configuration, including the automatic enrollment of a malicious MCP STDIO server. If exploited, an attacker can execute commands as the user, alter MCP configurations persistently, and potentially access sensitive information. It's crucial for users of this software to audit their configurations and apply necessary updates to mitigate such risks.
