Google Agent Mesh: unauthenticated peers could invoke MCP toolsTwo missing-authorization flaws let an outsider join Google's Agent Mesh or skip its policy check, then call tools on connected MCP servers.
What to do · Upgrade to v0.1.0-alpha.9 or later, which fails closed by default, requires explicit policy bindings at enrollment and adds ban checks. Replace any wildcard binding of sam:system:authenticated with explicit per-service bindings. Re-run dependency scanners against the github.com/google/sam Go module, because the CVE ids are new and earlier scans had nothing to match.
