Enables AI agents to perform endpoint security scanning using AlienVault OTX and VirusTotal, including multi-platform scans, threat intelligence queries, and scan data persistence.
Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

M8ven verifies MCPs across every public registry — install directly from whichever one you prefer.
Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk has cross-client data leak via shared server/transport instance reuse
Anthropic's MCP TypeScript SDK has a ReDoS vulnerability
Model Context Protocol (MCP) TypeScript SDK does not enable DNS rebinding protection by default

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations
Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.
All four hints declared on every tool
15/15 tools missing one or more hints — scan_endpoint (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); scan_macos_pkg (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); scan_windows (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +12 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.
For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.
Tool test coverage
Only 0/15 tools referenced in tests (0%)
Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.
Tests pass
npm test failed — tests do not pass
Make sure npm test runs cleanly. Common cause: missing build step or missing env vars.
Production dependencies are patched
0 critical, 3 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.17.3 (high), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.17.3 (high)
Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.
Dependency freshness
1/7 production deps stale: node-fetch@2023-11-30 (2.7y)

Add it once and ask Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client to grade a server, surface CVEs, check the publisher, and suggest safer alternatives — before you install.
