criticalC1Command InjectionMCP03-command-injectionAML.T0054
Pattern "`[^`]+`" matched in source_code: "`You are a crisp summarizer. Limit to ${maxSentences} sentence(s). Be faithful, clear, and concise.`" (at position 710)
Replace exec()/execSync() with execFile() and pass arguments as an array, never as a string. Validate all inputs against an allowlist before use in any shell context. For subprocess.run, always pass a list and shell=False.
criticalK14Agent Credential Propagation via Shared StateMCP05-privilege-escalationAML.T0054
Pattern "(process\.env|os\.environ|setenv|putenv).*(?:token|credential|api[_\s-]?key|secret|password)" matched in source_code: "process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY" (at position 534)
Never write credentials to shared agent state. Use credential vaults (HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager) with per-agent scoped access. Implement OAuth token exchange (RFC 8693) for cross-agent authorization. Redact credentials from all agent outputs before writing to shared memory. Required by OWASP ASI03/ASI07 and MAESTRO L7.
criticalQ13MCP Bridge Package Supply Chain AttackMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "["']@modelcontextprotocol/sdk["']\s*:\s*["'](?:\^|~|\*|latest)" matched in source_code: ""@modelcontextprotocol/sdk": "^" (at position 6515)
MCP bridge packages (mcp-remote, mcp-proxy, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, fastmcp) are high-value supply chain targets — CVE-2025-6514 (CVSS 9.6) in mcp-remote affected 437,000+ installs. Always pin exact versions (no ^ or ~ ranges). Use lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, uv.lock). Never run `npx mcp-remote` without version pinning. Verify package integrity with `npm audit` or `pip-audit` before deployment. Reference: CVE-2025-6514, OWASP ASI04.
criticalQ8Cross-Protocol Authentication ConfusionMCP07-insecure-configT1550
Pattern "(?:oauth|bearer).{0,100}(?:api[_\s-]?key|x-api-key|apiKey)" matched in source_code: "Bearer ${process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY" (at position 1059)
MCP servers supporting multiple protocols must enforce authentication independently per protocol. Never reuse OAuth tokens across protocol boundaries. Implement protocol-specific middleware with explicit auth checks on every path. Audit auth coverage for all transport types (stdio, SSE, Streamable HTTP, REST). Reference: CVE-2025-6514 demonstrated that auth library vulnerabilities in MCP's OAuth layer cascade to all protocols sharing the same auth middleware.

High7

highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.18.2" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
highC7Wildcard CORSMCP07-insecure-config
Pattern "cors\s*\(\s*\{[^}]*origin\s*:\s*['"]\*['"]" matched in source_code: "cors({ origin: "*"" (at position 3316)
Replace wildcard CORS with an explicit allowlist of permitted origins. Wildcard CORS allows any website to make requests to the MCP server.
highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "express@4.19.2" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
highK11Missing Server Integrity VerificationMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "(connect|load|register|add)[_\s-]?(mcp|server|tool)(?!.*(?:verify|validate|checksum|hash|sign|cert|fingerprint|pin))" matched in source_code: "registerTool" (at position 1582)
Implement cryptographic verification for MCP server connections: (1) Pin server TLS certificates or public keys, (2) Verify server tool definition checksums against a known-good manifest, (3) Use package manager integrity checks (npm integrity, pip --require-hashes). The MCP spec recommends but doesn't yet mandate server signing — implement it proactively. Required by ISO 27001 A.8.24 and CoSAI MCP-T6.
highK13Unsanitized Tool OutputMCP02-tool-poisoningAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:readFile|read_file|open).*(?:return|respond|result|content|text)(?!.*(?:sanitize|escape|encode|strip|filter|validate|truncate))" matched in source_code: "openaiSummarize({ text" (at position 458)
Sanitize all external data before including in tool responses. Implement output encoding that neutralizes prompt injection patterns. Truncate excessively long content. Validate structure before passing database results. Apply the principle: treat all external data as untrusted, even in tool outputs. Required by CoSAI MCP-T4.
highN10Incomplete Handshake Denial of ServiceMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:createServer|listen)\s*\((?!.*(?:maxConnections|maxClients|connectionLimit|MAX_CONN))" matched in source_code: "listen(" (at position 6194)
Enforce a handshake timeout (recommended: 30 seconds) — terminate connections that do not complete the initialize handshake within the deadline. Limit maximum concurrent pending connections. An attacker can exhaust server connection slots by initiating MCP connections without completing the handshake (Slowloris-style attack). Reference: MCP spec 2025-03-26 lifecycle — initialize MUST complete before functional requests.
highC3Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)MCP04-data-exfiltrationAML.T0057
Pattern "\bfetch\s*\([^)]*\$\{[^}]*(?:url|uri|host|target|endpoint|param|input|args)[^}]*\}" matched in source_code: "fetch(`https://wttr.in/${encodeURIComponent(city)}" (at position 2389)
Validate ALL user-supplied URLs before making HTTP requests: 1. Parse the URL and check the hostname against an explicit allowlist of permitted domains. 2. Block requests to RFC 1918 private ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16. 3. Block loopback (127.0.0.0/8), link-local (169.254.0.0/16), and IPv6 equivalents. 4. Block file:// and other non-http(s) protocols explicitly. 5. Disable automatic redirect following, or re-validate each redirect destination. 6. In cloud environments: block requests to IMDS endpoints (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal) at both the application AND network layer. Example (Node.js): Use the `ssrf-req-filter` package or implement URL validation against an allowlist before calling fetch/axios/got.

mediumK17Missing Timeout or Circuit BreakerMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:fetch|axios|got|request|urllib|httpx|http\.get|http\.post)\s*\((?!.*(?:timeout|signal|AbortSignal|deadline|cancel))" matched in source_code: "fetch(" (at position 904)
Add timeouts to ALL external calls: HTTP requests (30s), database queries (10s), subprocess execution (60s), and MCP tool calls (30s). Implement circuit breakers that open after N consecutive failures (e.g., opossum, cockatiel). Use AbortSignal for cancellable operations. Required by EU AI Act Art. 15 and OWASP ASI08.
