CortexSynapse
Verified Safeby amshamah419
Overview
CortexSynapse acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling AI-powered IDEs and agents to interact with live Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR/XSIAM instances for security development, testing, and automation tasks.

Security Notes
The server demonstrates strong security practices including explicit use of environment variables for credentials, Docker hardening recommendations (`--read-only`, `no-new-privileges`), built-in rate limiting, and sanitization of error messages to prevent information leakage. Input validation (`sanitize_input`, `validate_inputs`) is implemented for string parameters, checking for length and common injection patterns. However, for complex JSON request bodies, the code doesn't explicitly show deep, recursive sanitization by the server itself before passing the body to the downstream XSOAR/XSIAM API via `httpx.request(json=body)`. While the target APIs are expected to handle their own input validation, this could be a point of concern if an AI agent is coerced into crafting a malicious JSON payload that the target API might interpret unexpectedly, and the proxy itself does not apply deeper content validation.
