by VeVarunSharma
Overview
Demonstrates security vulnerabilities and mitigations in Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for educational purposes.
Installation
npm run demo:allSecurity Notes
This repository is intentionally designed to showcase critical security vulnerabilities (Command Injection, Path Traversal, SSRF, Tool Poisoning, Full-Schema Poisoning, Advanced Tool Poisoning) in its 'vulnerable' implementations. Running the vulnerable server code, or any part of it without careful application of the provided 'secure' mitigations, would lead to severe compromises including arbitrary code execution, sensitive data exfiltration (e.g., SSH keys, AWS credentials), and internal network exposure. While the repository provides secure examples and strong warnings, its core content for demonstration is highly insecure by design. Therefore, it is extremely unsafe to run in any non-isolated or production environment.
