MCP Server Information
Findings
This package carries a B grade with 34 medium-severity findings, primarily related to server configuration issues (31) and insecure container images (2), plus one resource exhaustion vulnerability. While no critical or high-severity flaws were detected, the configuration weaknesses should be reviewed and addressed before deployment, particularly if this will run in a production environment. The safety score of 84/100 suggests manageable but non-trivial risks that warrant attention during your security assessment.
No known CVEs found for this package or its dependencies.
Scan Details
Want deeper analysis?
Fast scan found 34 findings using rule-based analysis. Upgrade for LLM consensus across 5 judges, AI-generated remediation, and cross-file taint analysis.
Building your own MCP server?
Same rules, same LLM judges, same grade. Private scans stay isolated to your account and never appear in the public registry. Required for code your team hasn’t shipped yet.

Container base image uses the floating :latest tag. This provides no reproducibility — the image content can change under you, and there is no signature to verify.

Remediation
Pin the base image by digest (e.g. python@sha256:...) or at minimum an exact semver tag (e.g. python:3.12.4-slim-bookworm). Never use :latest in production Dockerfiles.

Network / IO / subprocess call without an explicit timeout. A malicious or hung upstream (HTTP host, socket peer, child process) can pin threads, exhaust connection/process pools, and make the MCP server unresponsive. Always pass a bounded timeout. v2 extends v1 with subprocess coverage (R03 from the legacy readiness audit).

Remediation
Pass timeout= on every call: - HTTP: `requests.get(url, timeout=5)`, `httpx.get(url, timeout=5.0)` - Node fetch: `AbortSignal.timeout(5000)` - Subprocess: `subprocess.run(["cmd"], timeout=30, check=True)` Pick a value short enough to fail fast and retry.
GitHub Actions `uses:` reference is not pinned to a 40-character commit SHA. Tags (`@v4`) and branches (`@main`) are mutable — a compromised maintainer or a tag rewrite can substitute malicious code into your CI pipeline silently. Pin to a SHA: `uses: actions/checkout@8e5e7e5ab8b370d6c329ec480221332ada57f0ab`. For readability, include the version as a trailing comment: `# v4.1.1`. Tools like `pinact` / `ratchet` automate this.
