What we checked

Six static checks, weighted by risk. Every result reflects only what could be observed in the published package and repository — never intent.

• Injection surface

  unscannable25% of grade

  Tool descriptions/manifest scanned for instruction-injection patterns (imperatives at the model, hidden text, 'ignore previous', data-exfil URLs).

  No tool descriptions, server instructions, prompts, or resources were fetched; nothing to scan for injection.

• Supply chain

  fail25% of grade

  Package provenance: namespace verification, repo linkage, maintainer count, account age, postinstall scripts, typosquat distance.

  Python build script executes at build time: network call in build script

• Credential hygiene

  pass15% of grade

  How the server takes secrets (env vs plaintext config vs hardcoded); secrets appearing in tool schemas.

  Reads secrets from the environment (e.g. src/fedramp_20x_mcp/data_loader.py) — the recommended intake shape. PASS = no static red flag; static analysis cannot prove the code honors env-based secret handling at runtime.

• Permission scope

  fail15% of grade

  Declared tools vs. breadth (filesystem, network, exec); flags shell-exec and unbounded filesystem access.

  HIGH: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cna_04.py: references a sensitive credential path (/.ssh/) — the tool-poisoning exfiltration target. discloses dynamic code execution: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/cve_fetcher.py: uses eval/exec/__import__ discloses dynamic code execution: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cna_04.py: uses eval/exec/__import__ discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/cve_fetcher.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cmt_01.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cmt_01.py: destructive filesystem call (shutil.rmtree/os.remove/etc.) discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cmt_04.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cna_05.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_cna_08.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_mla_01.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_piy_01.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_svc_05.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_svc_05.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_svc_08.py: open(…, 'w'/'a'/'x') write-mode file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_svc_08.py: destructive filesystem call (shutil.rmtree/os.remove/etc.) discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_svc_08.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access discloses broad/destructive filesystem access: src/fedramp_20x_mcp/analyzers/ksi/ksi_tpr_03.py: path traversal ('../') combined with file access Capability DISCLOSURE, not a verdict: static analysis sees the primitive is present and reachable, not whether its use is attacker-controlled.

• Version behavior

  unscannable10% of grade

  Diff of tool definitions between versions; new permissions or changed descriptions in a patch release (the postmark-mcp class).

  no prior version to diff (first sight of io.github.KevinRabun/[email protected]); version-drift / rug-pull cannot be evaluated. Cold-start risk is covered by point-in-time checks (injection_surface, supply_chain, credential_hygiene), not here.

• Transport config

  fail10% of grade

  Remote servers: TLS and auth mode (none/token/OAuth). Local servers: whether the manifest indicates it phones home.

  source performs runtime self-update / download-and-execute (bypasses version_behavior); sends telemetry to third-party SDK (datadog) — disclosure, verify opt-in; manifest/source references Analytics behavior — disclosure
