Description
The mem0 v1.0.0 server lacks authentication and authorization controls for its memory reset functionality accessible via the DELETE /memories endpoint. An unauthenticated attacker can send a DELETE request that triggers a reset operation, leading to the execution of a DROP TABLE SQL statement. This results in the deletion of the entire memory database table, causing catastrophic data loss and a complete denial of service for all users of the service.
