Summary
Google Cloud Run MCP versions from 0 before 1.11.0 on Google Cloud Platform contain a bucket squatting flaw tied to predictable identifiers (CWE-340). An attacker can create a storage bucket with a predictable name before the legitimate one exists, so the tool's data is redirected to the attacker. A remote attacker who needs user interaction can intercept and access proprietary source code, execute arbitrary code and exfiltrate data.
