criticalC1Command InjectionMCP03-command-injectionAML.T0054
Pattern "`[^`]+`" matched in source_code: "`🔗 Client connected: ${event.session}`" (at position 1771)
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.
criticalQ13MCP Bridge Package Supply Chain AttackMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:mcp|fastmcp|langchain-mcp|llama-index-mcp)(?:>=|~=|==)?(?!\d)" matched in source_code: "MCP" (at position 44)
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.
criticalL7Transitive MCP Server DelegationMCP06-excessive-permissionsAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:connect|initialize).*(?:mcp|modelcontextprotocol).*(?:server|endpoint|url)" matched in source_code: "Initialize and start the Axiom MCP Server" (at position 577)
MCP servers MUST NOT create client connections to other MCP servers without explicit user disclosure. If delegation is required, declare all downstream servers in the server's capabilities and tool descriptions. Never forward user credentials to sub-servers. Implement a trust boundary between the approved server and any delegated servers. Log all transitive delegations for audit.

highK1Absent Structured LoggingMCP09-logging-monitoringAML.T0054
Pattern "console\.(log|warn|error)\s*\(.*(?:tool|request|handler|execute|invoke)" matched in source_code: "console.log("Registering MCP tool" (at position 1455)
Implement structured logging (pino, winston, or equivalent) for all tool call handlers. Every tool invocation should log: timestamp, tool name, caller identity, parameters (sanitized), result status, and duration. Required by ISO 27001 A.8.15, CoSAI MCP-T12, and NIST AI RMF MEASURE 2.6.
highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "axios@1.7.7" 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: "Register tool" (at position 1422)
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.

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.
