How to Fix CVE-2026-66004

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Blender mcp dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

blender-mcp fixed: 1.6.5 
pip install blender-mcp>=1.6.5
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

pip show blender-mcp

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2026-66004, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show blender-mcp

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Blender mcp in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.6.5), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show blender-mcp command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal'), where the product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. In Blender mcp, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

BlenderMCP before commit 30a3308 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the download_polyhaven_asset method that allows attackers to write arbitrary files by injecting traversal sequences in API response include keys. Attackers performing MITM attacks or prompt injection can supply malicious paths like '../../.bashrc' to overwrite sensitive files and achieve persistent code execution.
