CVE-2025-64340: Jlowin Fastmcp

High severity, CVSS 7.8. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

FastMCP is the standard framework for building MCP applications. Prior to version 3.2.0, server names containing shell metacharacters (e.g., &) can cause command injection on Windows when passed to fastmcp install claude-code or fastmcp install gemini-cli. These install paths use subprocess.run() with a list argument, but on Windows the target CLIs often resolve to .cmd wrappers that are executed through cmd.exe, which interprets metacharacters in the flattened command string. This issue has been patched in version 3.2.0.

Affected products

• Jlowin Fastmcp: before 3.2.0 (fixed in 3.2.0)
