CVE-2026-119613: AshAi sends unrecognized tool errors verbatim to MCP clients and the model, disclosing internal details
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.26% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: ash-project ash_ai 1.5.1, af7987769d78ed070c8a9f6e6ee542d91744eae6.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to ash-project ash_ai 1.5.1, af7987769d78ed070c8a9f6e6ee542d91744eae6 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information vulnerability in ash-project ash_ai allows a caller of an AshAi tool to read internal error details, including module names and data values, by making a tool call fail. AshAi.ToToolError gained an implementation for Ash.Error.Unknown.UnknownError that returns the error's error field as is, and AshAi.Tool.Errors.format/1 sends that text to MCP clients (tool calls and resource reads in AshAi.Mcp.Server) and to the model in AshAi.ToolLoop. Ash stores the full Exception.format/2 output of a raised exception, or inspect/1 of a bare {:error, term} return, in that field. A tool result that cannot be JSON-encoded raises a Protocol.UndefinedError whose text includes the inspected value, which can be a whole record with fields the tool never returns. None of these errors were logged. The fix logs them under an error id and returns only that id to the caller. This issue affects ash_ai: from 1.5.0 before 1.5.1.
