criticalC1Command InjectionMCP03-command-injectionAML.T0054
Pattern "`[^`]+`" matched in source_code: "`Unknown tool: ${request.params.name}`" (at position 1052)
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.
criticalJ1Cross-Agent Configuration PoisoningMCP05-privilege-escalationAML.T0054
Pattern "(~[/\\]\.mcp\.json|\.mcp\.json)" matched in source_code: ".mcp.json" (at position 2133)
MCP servers MUST NOT write to AI agent configuration directories. If configuration management is the server's purpose, require explicit user confirmation before any write and restrict paths to the server's own config namespace. CVE-2025-53773 demonstrated this enables full RCE across agent boundaries.
criticalQ13MCP Bridge Package Supply Chain AttackMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "npx\s+(?:mcp-remote|mcp-proxy|mcp-gateway|@modelcontextprotocol)(?!@\d)" matched in source_code: "npx @modelcontextprotocol" (at position 2088)
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.
criticalQ4IDE MCP Configuration InjectionMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:MCP|Mcp|mCp|mcP)\.(?:JSON|Json|jSon|jsoN)" matched in source_code: "mcp.json" (at position 2134)
MCP servers must NOT write to IDE configuration files (.cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/settings.json, .claude/settings.local.json) without explicit, interactive user confirmation that cannot be bypassed by repository-controlled settings. CVE-2025-54135/54136 (Cursor), CVE-2025-59536 (Claude Code) demonstrated that auto-start and silent config mutation enable RCE. Implement case-normalized path validation (CVE-2025-59944). Never use enableAllProjectMcpServers in shared repositories.
highK16Unbounded Recursion / Missing Depth LimitsMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
Pattern "(invoke|call|execute)[_\s-]?(?:tool|agent|self)(?!.*(?:depth|level|limit|max[_\s-]?(?:depth|recursi|iter|call)|count))" matched in source_code: "CallTool" (at position 109)
Add explicit depth/recursion limits to all recursive operations. Use iterative approaches where possible. Set maximum depth for directory walking (max_depth=10), tree traversal (max_level=20), and agent re-invocation (max_calls=5). Implement circuit breakers that halt after N iterations. Required by EU AI Act Art. 15 (robustness) and OWASP ASI08.
highK18Cross-Trust-Boundary Data Flow in Tool ResponseMCP04-data-exfiltrationAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:process\.env|os\.environ|config|settings).*(?:fetch|axios|http|post|send|webhook)" matched in source_code: "process.env.MCP_TRANSPORT='http" (at position 2249)
Implement data flow taint tracking: tag data from sensitive sources (databases, credentials, files) and prevent it from flowing to external sinks (HTTP, webhooks, email) without explicit sanitization/redaction. Apply data classification and enforce boundary controls per trust level. Required by ISO 27001 A.5.14 and CoSAI MCP-T5.
highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.18.0" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
highN10Incomplete Handshake Denial of ServiceMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:createServer|listen)\s*\((?!.*(?:maxConnections|maxClients|connectionLimit|MAX_CONN))" matched in source_code: "createServer(" (at position 406)
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.
lowF4MCP Spec Non-ComplianceMCP07-insecure-config
Server fails MCP spec compliance checks: required:server_name; required:server_version; required:protocol_version; recommended:tool_descriptions; recommended:parameter_descriptions
Follow the MCP specification for server metadata. Include server name, version, and protocol version. Provide descriptions for all tools and parameters.
