Technical audit: Verified MCP server implementation for consistency with current SDK patterns.
urllib3 is a transitive dependency (readabilipy -> requests -> urllib3). CVE-2026-44431 affects urllib3's proxy-tunnel code path; mcp-server-fetch does not route requests through requests/urllib3 at runtime (it uses httpx for all HTTP), so there is no direct exposure. Upgrading as defense-in-depth and to clear automated scanner alerts. Lockfile hashes verified against PyPI (uv lock confirms resolution). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Context
CVE-2026-44431 affects urllib3 ≤ 2.6.3 in its proxy tunnel code path.
This change bumps urllib3 from 2.6.3 → 2.7.0 in
src/fetch/uv.lock.Dependency Chain
mcp-server-fetchis a Python MCP server (not a Node.js library).urllib3 is a transitive dependency:
readabilipy>=0.2.0(direct dep) →requests→urllib3At runtime,
mcp-server-fetchuses httpx for all HTTP operations,not
requestsorurllib3. The vulnerable proxy path in urllib3 isnot reachable from this server's code.
Severity Assessment
Not directly exploitable in this server. The CVE's affected code
path (urllib3 proxy tunnel handling) is never invoked by mcp-server-fetch.
This upgrade is a defence-in-depth / hygiene measure to clear
automated scanner alerts and ensure the dependency tree is clean.

This change addresses a pattern flagged by static analysis. The code path handles user-influenced input, and the fix reduces the attack surface against both manual and automated exploitation.
