MCP server for Hostinger API
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe package’s execution paths support building and running a Hostinger API MCP server, and its OAuth flow uses the Hostinger issuer by default. The flagged shell and network behavior is tied to compilation, browser sign-in, or user-requested API operations; no malicious automatic behavior was found.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.; source matched previously finalized malicious package; routed for review; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The MCP server starts when its entry point is run; API operations and OAuth sign-in occur in response to client requests or an explicit login command.
Impact
No unauthorized collection, credential forwarding to an unrelated host, or unrequested account action was identified.
Mechanism
API credentials are used for Hostinger service requests. The build script runs TypeScript compilation, and a separate connection bootstrap uses npx and may launch the Hostinger OAuth browser flow.
AI rationale
The package’s execution paths support building and running a Hostinger API MCP server, and its OAuth flow uses the Hostinger issuer by default. The flagged shell and network behavior is tied to compilation, browser sign-in, or user-requested API operations; no malicious automatic behavior was found.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 94.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package entry points start the Hostinger MCP server.
- The build script runs the TypeScript compiler and copies package files into dist.
- The headless connection bootstrap invokes the Hostinger MCP package through npx when that script is run.
- OAuth uses auth.hostinger.com by default and sends refresh tokens to the configured issuer’s token endpoint.
- OAuth credentials are saved to the Hostinger MCP config directory; on non-Windows platforms the file is restricted to owner access.
- Bundled agent skills are exposed as MCP resources through skills and resource requests.
Evidence against
- The package includes child-process and shell execution in its build and OAuth browser-launch code.
- The connection bootstrap checks for existing Hostinger credentials and can initiate a browser sign-in.
- The package handles API tokens and OAuth credentials to authenticate requests to Hostinger services.
- Bundled skills describe account operations and deployment workflows.
