The EPSS score is not reported and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation would require access to the MCP server interface, typically through an exposed API or an authenticated user with permissions to execute Cypher queries. Based on the description, it is inferred that the attacker would need to send Cypher queries through the MCP server API, which is often exposed on an internal or public network. While the attack cannot be achieved remotely without such access, the presence of SSRF implies that once the read\u2011only bypass is achieved, the attacker can cause the server to request arbitrary URLs, potentially exfiltrating data or further compromising the network."}}}}, "created": "2026-04-17T21:30:28.226648+00:00", "updated": "2026-04-18T09:00:05.904710+00:00", "vendors": ["neo4j-contrib", "neo4j-contrib$PRODUCT$mcp-neo4j"]}
