Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. The flagged process execution belongs to the build compiler or an explicitly run connection bootstrap. The inspected OAuth flow targets Hostinger, and the package declares no install lifecycle hook. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Clean - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 92.0% - **Started:** 2026-10-30T08:22:42.491Z - **Finished:** 2026-10-30T08:23:31.857Z - **Download time:** 520 ms - **Static scan time:** 2549 ms - **AI review time:** 46291 ms - **Total time:** 49366 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:** No attack was identified; the inspected behavior matches a Hostinger API MCP server and its connection skill. - **Trigger:** The MCP starts when its command or entry point is run; OAuth is used when authentication is needed, and the bootstrap runs when explicitly invoked. - **Impact:** The inspected code can use the user's Hostinger account for requested API operations and stores OAuth credentials for that purpose. - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-10-30T08:23:31.857Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** The package authenticates through Hostinger OAuth and runs API operations through the MCP. Its build script compiles TypeScript. - **Rationale:** The flagged process execution belongs to the build compiler or an explicitly run connection bootstrap. The inspected OAuth flow targets Hostinger, and the package declares no install lifecycle hook. - **Files touched:** ~/.config/hostinger-mcp/credentials.json, dist/package.json, dist/.env.example, dist/README.md - **Network endpoints:** auth.hostinger.com, developers.hostinger.com, raw.githubusercontent.com, codeload.github.com ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Clean - **Confidence:** 92.0% - **Recommended action:** mark\_clean - **Intent class:** Benign - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for AI clean decision:** package.json declares start, build and start:ts scripts, with no install lifecycle script., build.js runs the TypeScript compiler and copies package files into dist., OAuth defaults to auth.hostinger.com and defines Hostinger OAuth registration, authorization, token and revocation routes., OAuth exchanges an authorization code and PKCE verifier with the configured issuer as part of sign-in., The headless bootstrap selects npx to invoke @hostinger/mcp@latest when the bootstrap is run., src/core/skills.js contains agent skill instructions for connecting to the Hostinger MCP. - **Evidence against:** The OAuth credentials are stored for Hostinger MCP use; the inspected code does not send them to an unrelated host., The bootstrap and its npx invocation are part of an explicit connection flow, not an install hook., The build script's shell execution is limited to running the TypeScript compiler. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @hostinger/mcp@3.17.3. - Review the evidence and your use of @hostinger/mcp@3.17.3 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.
