criticalQ8Cross-Protocol Authentication ConfusionMCP07-insecure-configT1550
Pattern "(?:oauth|bearer).{0,100}(?:api[_\s-]?key|x-api-key|apiKey)" matched in source_code: "Bearer ${this.apiKey" (at position 12611)
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.
criticalC1Command InjectionMCP03-command-injectionAML.T0054
Pattern "`[^`]+`" matched in source_code: "`RequestInit`" (at position 5517)
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.
criticalG7DNS-Based Data Exfiltration ChannelMCP04-data-exfiltrationAML.T0040
Pattern "\.toString\s*\(\s*16\s*\).*\." matched in source_code: ".toString(16)." (at position 16617)
Remove all dynamic DNS queries where subdomain content is derived from application data, user input, or system information. DNS exfiltration channels are invisible to most monitoring tools and operate even through strict HTTP firewalls. If DNS-based service discovery is required, use a static list of known-good hostnames. Never construct DNS query hostnames by concatenating or encoding application data. Deploy DNS logging (e.g., passive DNS, BIND query logs) and alert on high-entropy subdomain queries.
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['TURBOPUFFER_API_KEY" (at position 7537)
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.
criticalK8Cross-Boundary Credential SharingMCP05-privilege-escalationAML.T0054
Pattern "(return|respond|output|result).*(?:token|credential|api[_\s-]?key|secret|password|bearer)" matched in source_code: "return buildHeaders([{ Authorization: `Bearer ${this.apiKey" (at position 12572)
Never forward, share, or embed credentials across trust boundaries. Use OAuth token exchange (RFC 8693) to create scoped, delegated tokens instead of passing original credentials. Never include credentials in tool responses. Required by ISO 27001 A.5.17 and OWASP ASI03.
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['TURBOPUFFER_BASE_URL'] ?? http" (at position 7781)
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.
highQ14Concurrent MCP Server Race ConditionMCP07-insecure-configT1068
Pattern "(?:read|write|modify|delete).*(?:file|path|directory)(?!.*(?:lock|mutex|semaphore|flock|atomic))" matched in source_code: "delete<Rsp>(path" (at position 15137)
MCP servers sharing filesystem or database backends with other servers must implement proper concurrency controls. Use: (1) file locking (flock/lockfile) for filesystem operations, (2) database transactions for all read-modify-write sequences, (3) atomic file operations (O_EXCL, mkdtemp) instead of check-then-create, (4) lstat() to detect symlinks before following (CVE-2025-53109). Never assume exclusive access to shared resources — other MCP servers may be operating concurrently.
highC15Timing Attack on Secret ComparisonMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
[AST pattern] String equality (===) on "apiKey" at L269 — timing side-channel. Attackers can determine secret value byte-by-byte by measuring comparison time.
Use crypto.timingSafeEqual() or hmac.compare_digest() for secret comparison. Never use === on secrets.
highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "wrangler@4.25.1" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
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 10589)
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.
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.
