// key findings
⚠️
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 4 high
Affects packages this MCP installs at runtime. Upgrade or remove the affected dependency.
⚠️
Tests do not pass
Either the test suite is broken or the code regressed. Either way the published behaviour can’t be verified by the publisher’s own tests.
✅
12 tools verified — handlers match their declared behaviour
12 read-only tools verified — handlers contain no write/delete/exec
✅
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
✅
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
// known CVEs in dependencies4 high

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

high@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1GHSA-345p-7cg4-v4c7

@modelcontextprotocol/sdk has cross-client data leak via shared server/transport instance reuse

high@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1GHSA-8r9q-7v3j-jr4g

Anthropic's MCP TypeScript SDK has a ReDoS vulnerability

high@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1GHSA-w48q-cv73-mx4w

Model Context Protocol (MCP) TypeScript SDK does not enable DNS rebinding protection by default

highmcp-handler@1.0.7GHSA-w2fm-25vw-vh7f

mcp-handler has a tool response leak across concurrent client sessions ('Race Condition')

// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.

Tool inputs are validated

Only 5/12 tool handlers declare input schemas (42%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

Tests pass

npm test failed — tests do not pass

Make sure npm test runs cleanly. Common cause: missing build step or missing env vars.

Shell command execution

1 child_process call — runs shell commands

Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 4 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 4 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
