MCP server for Hostinger API
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe flagged process execution is confined to the explicit TypeScript build and the headless sign-in workflow. The reviewed OAuth credentials are stored in the package’s user-specific configuration directory and exchanged with Hostinger’s auth issuer, with no unrelated collector or automatic install-time behavior 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
API requests use authentication when the MCP handles a tool call; browser OAuth occurs when a user starts login or no usable credentials are available.
Impact
Expected authenticated access to the user’s Hostinger account through requested MCP tools.
Mechanism
OAuth tokens are exchanged with the Hostinger auth issuer and stored in the user’s configuration directory; API requests use the Hostinger API base URL by default.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 96.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The package identifies itself as Hostinger’s API MCP server and exposes server entry points for that purpose.
- OAuth uses Hostinger’s auth issuer for registration, authorization and token operations.
- OAuth refresh sends the cached refresh token and client ID to the configured issuer’s token endpoint.
- OAuth credentials are stored under the user’s Hostinger MCP configuration directory; on non-Windows systems the write uses mode 0600.
- The runtime resolves a token for API requests, using the Hostinger API base URL by default.
- The flagged build script runs the TypeScript compiler as an explicit build step; the headless bootstrap’s npx calls support its sign-in flow.
Evidence against
- No install lifecycle scripts are declared in package.json.
- The reviewed credential flow sends OAuth tokens to the Hostinger issuer, and the API token is used by the API runtime.
- The headless bootstrap checks for existing authentication and otherwise launches the documented browser sign-in flow.
