MCP Toolbox 1.3.0 patches path traversal in HTTP tools, enforces auth boundaries on tool/prompt access, and fixes auth expiration handling. This release includes six bugfixes addressing security, access control, and data handling.

Why it matters: Path traversal prevention in HTTP tools closes a potential vulnerability; auth boundary enforcement and expiration fixes prevent unauthorized access. New cloud-sql-admin tools enable additional integrations. Test in dev before production deployment.
