Proposed fix: [LiteLLM Proxy >=1.83.6] Existing stdio MCP servers fail to start / cannot be created: "Command '...' is not in the allowed commands list for stdio transport" (CVE-2026-30623 allowlist);
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Change the MCP server config to use an allowed launcher (npx/uvx/python/node/docker/deno) or add the binary to LITELLM_MCP_STDIO_EXTRA_COMMANDS (comma-separated) at deploy time; use a PROXY_ADMIN key for test endpoints. Do not downgrade below the fixed version.
Option: Use an allowed launcher or extend the allowlist via LITELLM_MCP_STDIO_EXTRA_COMMANDS [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: LiteLLM >=1.83.6 stdio MCP servers
Steps:
1. Rewrite the server command to one of npx, uvx, python, python3, node, docker, deno (e.g. wrap a binary via uvx/npx package)
2. Or set LITELLM_MCP_STDIO_EXTRA_COMMANDS=<binary1>,<binary2> in the proxy environment and restart
3. Use a PROXY_ADMIN key for /mcp-rest/test/* endpoints
Expected: stdio MCP servers validate and start
