A security vulnerability has been identified where two authenticated MCP gateways can disagree on authorization, leading to potential security breaches. This issue arises when both an internal IAM gateway and an external OAuth gateway expose the same database tool, with one gateway incorrectly rejecting a cross-tenant filter while the other accepts it. To mitigate this, it is recommended to use a single versioned contract that defines capabilities, tenant scope, tool arguments, and resource limits, and to rigorously test this contract against various scenarios including cross-tenant requests and policy rollouts.
