Executive Summary

MemOS is a memory operating system for LLMs and AI agents. In deployments where authentication is enabled (AUTH_ENABLED=true) but the undocumented, defaultless INTERNAL_SERVICE_SECRET environment variable is unset, the is_internal_request() check in src/memos/api/middleware/auth.py fails open: os.getenv("INTERNAL_SERVICE_SECRET") returns None and a request omitting the X-Internal-Service header al

Analysis

MemOS is a memory operating system for LLMs and AI agents. In deployments where authentication is enabled (AUTH_ENABLED=true) but the undocumented, defaultless INTERNAL_SERVICE_SECRET environment variable is unset, the is_internal_request() check in src/memos/api/middleware/auth.py fails open: os.getenv("INTERNAL_SERVICE_SECRET") returns None and a request omitting the X-Internal-Service header also yields None, so the comparison None == None evaluates true. The request is then treated as a trusted internal principal and granted scopes: ["all"]. As a result, an unauthenticated remote attacker can reach the admin API-key management endpoints to mint API keys for any user, enumerate keys, revoke keys, and generate a master key for persistent privileged access, as well as all data endpoints. CVSS Score: 9.8. Published: 2026-08-17T21:16:50.043.
