Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The runtime permits bearer credentials to be sent to an unrestricted API\_BASE\_URL override, which creates conditional credential exposure and warrants a warning. The inspected default is Hostinger, and the build script is compilation rather than an install-time attack. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 84.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-15T08:11:28.683Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-15T08:13:06.117Z - **Download time:** 501 ms - **Static scan time:** 1802 ms - **AI review time:** 95124 ms - **Total time:** 97434 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** A conditional credential exposure exists because API\_BASE\_URL can direct authenticated API requests to a configured recipient without a source-level host restriction. The default is Hostinger, so the inspected source does not establish disclosure to an unrelated recipient under default configuration. - **Trigger:** An operator sets API\_BASE\_URL to another host and invokes an authenticated API operation. - **Impact:** The configured recipient could receive the Hostinger API token. - **Evidence paths:** src/core/runtime.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-15T08:13:06.117Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The runtime constructs API URLs from API\_BASE\_URL and attaches the existing bearer token to requests. - **Rationale:** The runtime permits bearer credentials to be sent to an unrestricted API\_BASE\_URL override, which creates conditional credential exposure and warrants a warning. The inspected default is Hostinger, and the build script is compilation rather than an install-time attack. - **Files touched:** src/core/runtime.js - **Network endpoints:** https://developers.hostinger.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 84.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Medium - **Evidence for warning:** The runtime defaults API requests to developers.hostinger.com but accepts API\_BASE\_URL as an override., The runtime obtains an existing access token and attaches it to requests built from that configurable base URL., Both upload credential request paths build their URL from the base and send the bearer token., The general API operation path also builds its target from the base URL and attaches the bearer token., The package scripts shown are start, build, and start:ts; no install lifecycle hook is listed there., The flagged build script runs TypeScript compilation. - **Evidence against:** The source default targets Hostinger, and the exposure depends on an operator configuring API\_BASE\_URL to another recipient., The inspected build behavior is compilation; no install-time execution or unrelated file mutation was found. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @hostinger/mcp@2.17.1. - Review the evidence and your use of @hostinger/mcp@2.17.1 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1.
