Summary
ScriptKittyOS beam_mcp from 0.1.0 before 0.10.1 has improper input validation (CWE-20) in BeamMCP.Schema. The validate/2 function checks only the top-level arguments object, so constraints on nested objects and array items that the server advertises through tools/list are never enforced. An MCP client can send tool arguments that violate the advertised schema, such as an out-of-range number or an undeclared key inside a nested object. The impact depends on how the host's dispatch code handles such values.

Description from the CNA
Improper Input Validation vulnerability in BeamMCP.Schema in ScriptKittyOS beam_mcp allows an MCP client to reach a tool's dispatch function with arguments that violate the input schema the server advertised. BeamMCP.Schema.validate/2 checked type, required, additionalProperties, enum and numeric bounds on the top-level arguments object only. Constraints inside nested objects and on array items (items, minItems, maxItems, minLength, maxLength, pattern, nested required, enum and additionalProperties: false) were advertised by tools/list and never checked at tools/call or prompts/get, and keywords outside the enforced subset (oneOf, anyOf, $ref) were advertised and ignored. A host whose dispatch code relies on the schema it declared receives values the schema forbids, such as an out-of-range number or an undeclared key inside a nested object. What the host does with such a value decides the impact. This issue affects beam_mcp: from 0.1.0 before 0.10.1.
