criticalQ1Dual-Protocol Schema Constraint LossMCP06-excessive-permissionsAML.T0054
Pattern "(openai|function[_\s-]?calling|tool[_\s-]?choice).{0,60}(mcp|model[_\s-]?context)" matched in source_code: "openai && esbuild src/mcp" (at position 1242)
Dual-protocol MCP servers must validate input constraints server-side, not rely on client-side schema enforcement. When translating MCP schemas to OpenAI function-calling format, constraints like `pattern`, `minLength`, `maxLength`, and `format` are silently dropped. Implement server-side Zod/AJV validation on all tool inputs regardless of the calling protocol.
criticalQ13MCP Bridge Package Supply Chain AttackMCP10-supply-chainAML.T0054
Pattern "["']@modelcontextprotocol/sdk["']\s*:\s*["'](?:\^|~|\*|latest)" matched in source_code: ""@modelcontextprotocol/sdk": "^" (at position 1820)
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.

highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.12.1" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
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: "openai && esbuild src/mcp.ts --bundle --platform=node --format=cjs --outfile=dist/mcp.cjs --external:simple-git --external:@google/genai --external:openai --external:@modelcontext" (at position 1242)
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.

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.
