criticalQ9Agentic Workflow DAG ManipulationMCP05-privilege-escalationAML.T0058
Pattern "(?:next[_\s]?(?:step|node|agent)|route[_\s]?to|redirect[_\s]?to|skip[_\s]?(?:step|node|validation))" matched in source_code: "Skip validation" (at position 9453)
MCP tools must NOT modify agentic workflow graphs, execution order, or routing during runtime. Workflow structure should be immutable once execution begins. If dynamic workflow modification is required, implement: (1) approval gates that require human confirmation before graph mutations, (2) integrity checks that validate the workflow graph against a known-good baseline after each step, (3) audit logging of all graph modifications with rollback capability. Reference: arXiv 2602.19555, Trend Micro subgraph impersonation attack (2026).
criticalJ1Cross-Agent Configuration PoisoningMCP05-privilege-escalationAML.T0054
Pattern "(\.claude[/\\]|claude[/\\]settings|claude.*config)" matched in source_code: "claude_config" (at position 23082)
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 "(?:mcp|fastmcp|langchain-mcp|llama-index-mcp)(?:>=|~=|==)?(?!\d)" matched in source_code: "mcp" (at position 143)
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.
criticalQ8Cross-Protocol Authentication ConfusionMCP07-insecure-configT1550
Pattern "(?:oauth|bearer).{0,100}(?:api[_\s-]?key|x-api-key|apiKey)" matched in source_code: "Bearer {groq_api_key" (at position 1711)
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.

highK13Unsanitized Tool OutputMCP02-tool-poisoningAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:fetch|axios|requests?\.get|http\.get).*(?:return|respond|result|body|text|data)(?!.*(?:sanitize|escape|encode|strip|validate|parse|extract))" matched in source_code: "Fetch and return" (at position 16548)
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.
highD1Known CVEs in DependenciesMCP08-dependency-vuln
Dependency "mcp@null" has known CVEs:
Update dependencies to versions that patch known CVEs. Run 'npm audit fix' or 'pip-audit' to identify and resolve vulnerable dependencies.
highC3Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)MCP04-data-exfiltrationAML.T0057
Pattern "\bhttpx\.(?:get|post|put|delete|patch|head|options|request|AsyncClient|Client)\s*\([^)]*(?:req|request|input|param|params|args|url|uri|href|link|target|destination|endpoint|host|address|resource|src|source)" matched in source_code: "httpx.Client(
base_url" (at position 1609)
Validate ALL user-supplied URLs before making HTTP requests:
1. Parse the URL and check the hostname against an explicit allowlist of permitted domains.
2. Block requests to RFC 1918 private ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16.
3. Block loopback (127.0.0.0/8), link-local (169.254.0.0/16), and IPv6 equivalents.
4. Block file:// and other non-http(s) protocols explicitly.
5. Disable automatic redirect following, or re-validate each redirect destination.
6. In cloud environments: block requests to IMDS endpoints (169.254.169.254,
metadata.google.internal) at both the application AND network layer.
Example (Node.js): Use the `ssrf-req-filter` package or implement URL validation
against an allowlist before calling fetch/axios/got.
highN1JSON-RPC Batch Request AbuseMCP07-insecure-configAML.T0054
Pattern "(?:handleBatch|process_batch|batch_handler)\s*(?:=>|=|\()(?!.*(?:timeout|deadline|AbortSignal|Promise\.race))" matched in source_code: "process_batch(" (at position 18325)
Enforce a maximum batch size for JSON-RPC requests (recommended: 20-25 requests per batch). Reject batches exceeding the limit with a -32600 (Invalid Request) error. Implement per-batch timeout and memory limits. Reference: JSON-RPC 2.0 Section 6 (Batch) does not mandate limits — servers MUST enforce them.

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.
